Verdict
The clearest difference is price: kyudo at Free against My Exercise's $3.99. kyudo also leads on iOS requirement (7.0 vs 13.0). My Exercise's advantage is ratings volume (41 vs 1) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 weeks). On rating, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
