Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Rhythm Generator at freemium against Music Rhythm Trainer's subscription. Music Rhythm Trainer's advantage is ratings volume (5.1K vs 62) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.5). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.
