Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Kuled at free against Sensi's free with in-app purchases. Kuled also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 16.0). Sensi's advantage is ratings volume (246K vs 225) and rating (4.6 vs 4.3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
