Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Metapho at 4.6 against Koredoko's 3.0. Metapho also leads on ratings volume (2.1K vs 34). Koredoko's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 26.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Metapho sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per year. Koredoko asks for nothing beyond the download.
Metapho holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Metapho has 2.1K ratings behind it against 34, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Koredoko's written reviews are positive against 61% of Metapho's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Koredoko ships an update every 2 months, Metapho every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and November 13, 2026 respectively.
