Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Aria at none against Epic Orchestra's 1. Aria also leads on ads (none vs shown). Epic Orchestra's advantage is chart position (#196 vs unranked) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 3 months). On price and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
