Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 4get at none against Birthday Countdown's 6. 4get also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.5). Birthday Countdown's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 4 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
