Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: SetGo at 5.0 against TempoReps's 4.0. SetGo also leads on monetization model (freemium vs paid) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). TempoReps's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks) and ratings volume (4 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
