# KAMI 2 vs Up the Wall

The clearest difference is ads: Up the Wall at none against KAMI 2's shown. Up the Wall also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.0). KAMI 2's advantage is ratings volume (15K vs 151). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. KAMI 2 sells 7 one-off in-app purchases and Up the Wall sells 11 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for KAMI 2 against 4.7 for Up the Wall. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: KAMI 2 has 15K ratings behind it against 151, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 84% and 85% positive.

KAMI 2 ships an update every 2 months, Up the Wall every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 28, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
