Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: CryptVault at every 2 days against TallyRig's every 3 months. TallyRig's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
