Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: R at none against KnoCard's 9. R also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 9 days) and ratings volume (37 vs 5). KnoCard's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 89%). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
