Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Audia at 5.0 against Audiora Stories's 4.5. Audia also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 weeks). Audiora Stories's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ratings volume (8 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Audia holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Audiora Stories has 8 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.
