Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Flick at none against Visual Timer's shown. Flick also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks). Visual Timer's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
