Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Bookworm Library at none against Smart Counter's 1. Bookworm Library also leads on ads (none vs shown). Smart Counter's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 8 months) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 18.6). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
