Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: KakaoPage at free with in-app purchases against Kiwi+'s subscription. KakaoPage also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 5 months) and review sentiment (19% vs 8%). Kiwi+'s advantage is rating (2.1 vs 1.6) and ads (none vs shown). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. KakaoPage sells 11 one-off in-app purchases and Kiwi+ sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Kiwi+ holds the better App Store score, 2.1 against 1.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 105 and 103 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 19% of KakaoPage's written reviews are positive against 8% of Kiwi+'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
KakaoPage ships an update monthly, Kiwi+ every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 23, 2026 respectively.
