Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: App MyCode at none against Kickstarter's shown. App MyCode also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 4 weeks) and iOS requirement (16.6 vs 18.0). Kickstarter's advantage is chart position (#172 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
