Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Doja Direct at none against BudWatcher's 5. Doja Direct also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). BudWatcher's advantage is ratings volume (240 vs 3) and chart position (#69 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
