Dr Alarm's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks) and ratings volume (8 vs 1). On in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

PomoTracker is free to download; Dr Alarm costs $0.99 up front. PomoTracker sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Dr Alarm sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
