Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: WaterDrop at none against Meal Sync's 2. WaterDrop also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). Meal Sync's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
