Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Focus Dive at none against TimeValve's 3. Focus Dive also leads on ads (none vs shown). TimeValve's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 11 days) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.2). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
