Supermiro is the superapp who even put your iPhone in a happy mood (can you spot his little smile?) but who mainly takes care of what you have most valuable: your free time! 
 Supermiro is a big dose of artificial intelligence who offers you all the cool things to do around you, just for you. But not just that : there are also the mirettes, the inspis, all the supernews, a bunch of crazy handmade illustrations, news from the Happy Team (aka us), and all of this full full of good mood. Each day, discover in one app all the go out opportunities, outings, events and great spots (around you), tailored just for you and for all your moods: whether you are in family mode with the little monsters, in partying mood or ready for a resto with friends, in afterwork mode with colleagues, in a romantic duo mood, or in a solo mode. If this is not a freaking great goal (but you don’t deserve any less dear superuser) I don’t know what is! Sooo, I think you got that we are trying to explain how much this app is going to change your iPhone (but your social life at the same time) If you agree with us, that you superloooove us, or that you like us even a little bit, drop a supercomment on the AppStore. And if you have feedbacks, remarks, we take it all in and improve!

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Kanopy at free against Supermiro's free with in-app purchases. Kanopy also leads on ratings volume (153K vs 6) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). Supermiro's advantage is review sentiment (95% vs 72%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
