Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Kinder Radios at none against SoundNode's 1. Kinder Radios also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (10.3 vs 15.0). SoundNode's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
