KOOL WhatsApp Notifications edges out TikTok on rating (4.9★ vs 4.8★), but the gap is small enough that pricing fit and feature differentiation should drive the decision more than the headline number. On pricing, TikTok offers a free tier (Free to install) while KOOL WhatsApp Notifications starts at From $12/month. The free option meaningfully reduces evaluation cost, particularly for stores at sub-1K monthly orders where the entry-paid tier can outpace the value delivered. TikTok has the larger user base (13,301 reviews vs 14), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. KOOL WhatsApp Notifications's smaller cohort can be an advantage for niche workflows where the bigger app has accumulated bloat. Recommended by store size: small/early-stage merchants who need fast install and low risk should default to KOOL WhatsApp Notifications; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — TikTok's 13,301-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than KOOL WhatsApp Notifications's broader-but-shallower coverage. This verdict is generated from the live marketplace data on this page — rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position all refresh from the canonical Shopify App Store listing every 24 hours. AppRanks does not accept payment to influence comparison outcomes; the methodology is documented on the About page and applies identically to every pair on the site.
