Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Water Reminder at none against Cup Count's shown. Water Reminder also leads on device support (4 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). Cup Count's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 2 weeks). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
