Verdict
The clearest difference is price: KOCOM Home at Free against YAM's $1.99. KOCOM Home also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). YAM's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 19 months). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
