Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: SWAAGTV at fortnightly against B102.9's every 9 months. SWAAGTV also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). B102.9's advantage is ratings volume (20 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

SWAAGTV holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: B102.9 has 20 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
