From the ios app description it states:

Quote:Dramatically better sound quality thanks to minimizing network traffic

And they reiterate that in this post here:
They say it sounds better than BubbleUPnP because the maximum polling for Bubble is 10 seconds whereas JPLAY can go up to 12000!
They also point to the local index helping with reduced network traffic, blah, blah, blah ;-)
I'm kinda surprised they've offered these reasons as it's something anyone can emulate/test (put your phone/tablet in airplane mode once a track has been started).

I think it's one of those products where you can't doubt what's being told, otherwise you won't "hear" the improvements.
