Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Qubes at none against Smash Hit's 2. Qubes also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 15.6). Smash Hit's advantage is ratings volume (109K vs 3.6K) and chart position (#94 vs unranked). On price, rating, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
