Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Blue Room at 5.0 against BrizLabs's 2.9. Blue Room also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 64%) and update cadence (every 3 days vs monthly). BrizLabs's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (75 vs 3). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
