Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Epic Orchestra at 4.6 against Rytmos's 3.6. Epic Orchestra also leads on review sentiment (79% vs 48%) and ratings volume (851 vs 62). Rytmos's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
