Point KandiCon at a photo and it works out the beads. Then share what you make with a whole community of kandi makers. Kandi bracelets, rave and festival cuffs, singles and charms: if it's strung from pony beads, you can make a pattern for it here. It matches every part of the picture to a real pony bead color you can actually buy, then gives you a chart, a count of how many of each color you need, and the rows to follow while you string. Pick Simple for a 3-color charm, or Intricate for a 39-wide, 12-color cuff panel. MAKE - Photo to pattern, with an option to cut out the background so you bead the subject and not the couch - Any emoji, turned into a chart - Name and word bracelets in your own colors - A blank grid with paint, fill, eraser and undo, for when you would rather draw it yourself - Set the size in inches and it works out the bead count BEFORE YOU START - A shopping list totaled by color, so you know what to buy - Mark the colors you already own and design only from those - Spin the cuff preview, or hold your phone up and see the piece on your wrist. Nothing is recorded or uploaded LEARN - Twelve tutorials: singles, ladder stitch, X-base, rotator cuffs, multi-stitch, spikes, peyote and 3D charms - Starter patterns sorted by faces, animals, food and hearts THE COMMUNITY - A feed of real kandi from real makers: cuffs, charms, outfits and works in progress - Post what you make with photos or video, and get likes and comments - Follow the makers you love and see their new work first - Watch makers go live and bead along, with live chat and hearts, or replay a live you missed - Polls, so the community can help pick your next colors - Contests with a new theme every couple of weeks - VIP makers with the blue check, who go live and post more often - Filter the feed by beads, patterns, people and outfits Making patterns is free and works without an account.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hunters Circle at none against KandiCon's 1. Hunters Circle also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). KandiCon's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
