Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Kmap at none against Math Automata's 1. Kmap also leads on ads (none vs shown). Math Automata's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 128 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
