Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Kajabi at 4.3 against Beacons's 3.3. Kajabi also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and ratings volume (7.4K vs 96). Beacons's advantage is review sentiment (39% vs 20%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Kajabi holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Kajabi has 7.4K ratings behind it against 96, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of Kajabi's written reviews are positive against 39% of Beacons's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Kajabi ships an update fortnightly, Beacons every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and September 30, 2026 respectively.
