Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: NSC Exam Prep at none against Komodo's shown. NSC Exam Prep also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.4). Komodo's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 5 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
