Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: KW at 83% against MLS's 45%. KW also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). MLS's advantage is ratings volume (13K vs 128) and rating (4.9 vs 4.6). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

MLS holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MLS has 13K ratings behind it against 128, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 45% of MLS's written reviews are positive against 83% of KW's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

MLS ships an update every 3 weeks, KW every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
