# Water Reminder vs Pushmi

The clearest difference is rating: Water Reminder at 4.7 against Pushmi's 3.9. Water Reminder also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (79K vs 10). Pushmi's advantage is review sentiment (86% vs 63%) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Water Reminder sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and Pushmi sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Water Reminder holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Water Reminder has 79K ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of Water Reminder's written reviews are positive against 86% of Pushmi's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Water Reminder ships an update every 5 weeks, Pushmi every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
