Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: KGGR at 5.0 against KNON's 4.4. KGGR also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). KNON's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 5 months). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
