Verdict
The clearest difference is price: PingID at Free against CalStack's $9.99. PingID also leads on chart position (#32 vs #190) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). CalStack's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 6 weeks). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
