Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Barre Definition at 4.9 against Inner Explorer CLASSROOM's 3.8. Barre Definition also leads on review sentiment (97% vs 56%) and ratings volume (2.8K vs 29). Inner Explorer CLASSROOM's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
