Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 慧音FM at none against GamingBuddy's 3. 慧音FM also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 17.0). GamingBuddy's advantage is ratings volume (197 vs 2) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
