Verdict
The clearest difference is price: WatchTheTime at Free against Complication Compilation's $0.99. WatchTheTime also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). Complication Compilation's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
