Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ROCK ATTACK at none against Radio DIY's 5. ROCK ATTACK also leads on device support (5 vs 3) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). Radio DIY's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 41 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
