Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: KaiNexus at 100% against Great Work™'s 17%. KaiNexus also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.0). Great Work™'s advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 13 months) and ratings volume (3K vs 10). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
