Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: WordPress at 4.6 against Kiwi's 3.0. WordPress also leads on ratings volume (22K vs 2). Kiwi's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 37%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support 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.
WordPress holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WordPress has 22K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 37% of WordPress's written reviews are positive against 67% of Kiwi's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
