Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Jukeblocks at none against Hex by Hex's 1. Jukeblocks also leads on iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). Hex by Hex's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
