Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Buypower at 4.4 against Kuun's 3.7. Buypower also leads on ratings volume (791 vs 3) and device support (3 vs 1). Kuun's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 weeks). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
