Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Kemo at 4.6 against 3's 3.4. Kemo also leads on ratings volume (92K vs 69) and chart position (#52 vs unranked). 3's advantage is review sentiment (59% vs 17%) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Kemo sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and 3 sells 15 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Kemo holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Kemo has 92K ratings behind it against 69, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 17% of Kemo's written reviews are positive against 59% of 3's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
