Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Audio Editor at 5.0 against Hear Boost's 4.2. Audio Editor also leads on monetization model (free vs subscription) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 weeks). Hear Boost's advantage is ratings volume (12K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
