Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Shawarmer at none against Kyan's shown. Shawarmer also leads on review sentiment (42% vs 15%) and ratings volume (11K vs 124). Kyan's advantage is monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.4 for Shawarmer against 4.5 for Kyan. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Shawarmer has 11K ratings behind it against 124, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 42% of Shawarmer's written reviews are positive against 15% of Kyan's.
