Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Square at 4.8 against KegID's 3.6. Square also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months) and review sentiment (25% vs 0%). KegID's advantage is monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
