‣ Actually plays music offline – revolutionary, we know. ‣ A ClickyBar for navigation, which feels like a bubble wrapping you can't stop popping. ‣ Regular offline use results in a battery that outlasts your ex. ‣ No ads, no subscriptions... Just works, like its' 2001. ‣ FanMode* in-app-purchase unlocks themes. (*)The app works perfectly without FanMode, but still that's how you should hold it! And also someone needs to pay the bills...

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: døPe at none against classicㅤ's 1. døPe also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 5 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
