About K-LMS KPass accesses K-LMS only when you choose to import, opening Safari once to import your timetable or assignments. Because you sign in with Safari, you can use your keio.jp passkey (such as Face ID). It does not log in automatically, fetch in the background, or keep your session alive. Imported assignments reflect the time they were fetched. Please note KPass is developed and operated by Technophere Inc. for students of Keio University. It is not an official app of Keio University. Always check official university announcements for final information on courses and facilities.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: k.dot at none against KPass's 10. k.dot also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). KPass's advantage is update cadence (daily vs every 11 days). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
