Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Kanban at 4.5 against Taskworld's 2.8. Kanban also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (280 vs 12). Taskworld's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 9) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and monetization model there is nothing between them.
