Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: DaysToGo at none against Days's 19. DaysToGo also leads on iOS requirement (8.0 vs 17.0). Days's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (12K vs 4). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
