Verdict

The call

JOOAN and YLP Player both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of YLP Player's written reviews are positive against 29% of JOOAN's. YLP Player also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 12 months) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). JOOAN's advantage is ratings volume (128 vs 26) and iOS requirement (12 vs 15.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
