Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Monkeytail at none against Termini's 3. Monkeytail also leads on ads (none vs shown) and device support (5 vs 2). Termini's advantage is update cadence (daily vs every 4 days) and chart position (#28 vs unranked). On price and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
