Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Boombox.io at none against Liminal Generator's 3. Boombox.io also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). Liminal Generator's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
