Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Local B Studio at 104 against Roots Cycle's 7. Local B Studio also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). Roots Cycle's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
