Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: KenLog at none against Kendamanomics's 3. KenLog also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). Kendamanomics's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.4). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
