Answer 2

It depends. For exampe, if you are new to GUI programming you will find tkinter easier to use plus it is a built in library i.e. you don't need to install it if you already have python installed. As your program gets complex kivy becomes a better choice though it's complicated unlike tkinter.

Answer 3

For simple programs, tkinter is a lot more straightforward and easier to get started with. Plus its library is built into the standard python installation package.
Kivy offers more flexibility and is more complicated, but it also has support for mobile (android + IOS).
