APM Sweep is the successor of the well known APM Tool: it let you quickly measure the acoustical performance of a room (reverberation time, clarity, etc. in octave and third octave bands), check if that room is well suited for its purpose and, if not, choose which materials can improve the acoustical quality. Everything still there but with an exciting improvement: now you can use all the power of the Exponential Sine Sweep technique for the measurement process, so your results can be extremely precise and accurate. You can also, save, load and export results in common spreadsheet format. The app can also generate pdf reports with photos. A tutorial slideshow explains the app use. Required at least iOS 11.0

J-Chorus is a vintage BBD-style chorus for iPhone and iPad. Use it as a standalone audio app or insert the included AUv3 effect in a compatible host such as GarageBand. Its circuit-informed processing models the character of a 256-stage BBD path, op-amp modulation source, and compander. Three classic modes provide bright movement, deeper richness, or a combined wide stereo sound. Aging adds adjustable clock instability and noise for a more weathered response. FEATURES - Mode I, Mode II, and combined I+II - Adjustable Aging for BBD jitter and noise character - Equal-power Depth dry/wet blending - Adjustable input gain - Instrument and line input modes - Optional 2x and 4x oversampling - Standalone iOS/iPadOS app - AUv3 audio effect for compatible hosts TRY BEFORE UNLOCKING The app provides 10 minutes of full-featured active use, shared between the standalone app and AUv3 extension. Demo time advances only while audio is actively processing. A one-time, non-consumable In-App Purchase unlocks unlimited use in both formats. Restore Purchases is available in the standalone app. J-Chorus adds rich stereo movement to synthesizers, guitar arpeggios, electric piano, vocals, pads, and other melodic sources.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: APM Sweep at none against J's 1. On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
