The clearest difference is price: KubeSail at Free against Metadata Pro's $3.99. KubeSail also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.8). Metadata Pro's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (127 vs 2). On update cadence, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
