Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Parktheater at Free against THE SOUNDMACHINE's $2.99. Parktheater also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 29 months). THE SOUNDMACHINE's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). On review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
