Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Kisi at every 10 days against SBCapp's every 2 months. Kisi also leads on ratings volume (24K vs 1) and chart position (#172 vs unranked). SBCapp's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
