Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Kerb at 5.0 against Blinkay's 4.4. Kerb also leads on review sentiment (45% vs 9%). Blinkay's advantage is ratings volume (3.6K vs 2) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Kerb holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Blinkay has 3.6K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 9% of Blinkay's written reviews are positive against 45% of Kerb's.
