Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Peterson's at 3.7 against Thirst Drinks's 2.7. Thirst Drinks's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (20% vs 0%). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Peterson's holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 2.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 3 and 12 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Peterson's's written reviews are positive against 20% of Thirst Drinks's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
