Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: RDY Check at none against Custom Sound Box's 1. RDY Check also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). Custom Sound Box's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
