Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Reminder at none against When's shown. Reminder also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and review sentiment (96% vs 84%). When's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
