Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Kite at Free against Bulletins's $2.99. Kite also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months) and iOS requirement (14.1 vs 26.0). Bulletins's advantage is chart position (#148 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
