Verdict
The clearest difference is price: TextWatch at Free against Complication Compilation's $0.99. TextWatch also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). Complication Compilation's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 8 months). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
