Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Kapi at none against Ling's shown. Kapi also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Ling's advantage is ratings volume (16K vs 1) and update cadence (weekly vs every 5 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
