Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Loopy Pro at none against Jamzone's shown. Loopy Pro also leads on review sentiment (95% vs 83%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Jamzone's advantage is ratings volume (9K vs 952) and chart position (#86 vs unranked). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
