Anytune Pro+ also leads on ratings volume (8.3K vs 298) and review sentiment (88% vs 76%). iStroboSoft's advantage is price ($9.99 vs $14.99) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and chart position there is nothing between them.

iStroboSoft costs $9.99 and Anytune Pro+ $14.99 up front. iStroboSoft sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and Anytune Pro+ sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
