Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Hungree at 100% against Thrive's 32%. Hungree also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Thrive's advantage is rating (3.8 vs 3.0) and update cadence (weekly vs every 11 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Thrive holds the better App Store score, 3.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Thrive has 1.1K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 32% of Thrive's written reviews are positive against 100% of Hungree's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Thrive ships an update weekly, Hungree every 11 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
