Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Loopz at none against World Piano's shown. Loopz also leads on iOS requirement (10.2 vs 18.0). World Piano's advantage is ratings volume (3.2K vs 86) and update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
