Kiln — Build your own apps, just by asking. Kiln is a new kind of iPhone app: instead of downloading a separate app for every little thing you want to track, you describe what you need and Kiln builds it for you on the spot. "Track my pushups with a streak." "A gratitude journal that nudges me at 9pm." "Count how many coffees I drink this week and chart it." In seconds, you have a real, native mini-app — yours to use, edit, and reshape whenever your routine changes. Why people love Kiln • Describe it in plain English — no setup, no settings menus, no friction. • Native, fast, and gorgeous. Every mini-app is built from real SwiftUI components, not a website wrapped in an app. • Edit anything by asking. "Add a reminder at 8am." Done. • Start from a template or start from scratch. • Your data stays on your device. Stop hunting the App Store for the "perfect" habit tracker, counter, or journal. Just describe the one you want.

Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Zingy at free against Kiln's freemium. Kiln's advantage is ratings volume (5 vs 1). On price, rating, in-app purchases and iOS requirement 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. Zingy sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Kiln sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Zingy against 5.0 for Kiln. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Kiln has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
