Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Playrite at none against JoyFeed's 1. Playrite also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). JoyFeed's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly) and ratings volume (5 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Playrite against 5.0 for JoyFeed. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: JoyFeed has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Playrite ships an update monthly, JoyFeed every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
