Both are free to download. Kiwibit sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $4.49 per month and Ask Bloom sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Kiwibit against 5.0 for Ask Bloom. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Kiwibit has 5.6K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
