Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Hero Timer at free with in-app purchases against WOD Randomiser's subscription. Hero Timer also leads on review sentiment (80% vs 62%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). WOD Randomiser's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 9 days vs monthly). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
