Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hydroo at none against Calcium's 3. Hydroo also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 7 months). Calcium's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price there is nothing between them.
