Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hula Parent at none against Pocket OT's 2. Hula Parent also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Pocket OT's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs monthly). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
