Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Kindergarten Math at 100% against ReadingIQ's 48%. Kindergarten Math also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.6). ReadingIQ's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (22K vs 3). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. ReadingIQ sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Kindergarten Math sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Kindergarten Math holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ReadingIQ has 22K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.
