# Recipe Keeper Box vs Homebaker

The clearest difference is rating: Recipe Keeper Box at 4.8 against Homebaker's 1.0. Recipe Keeper Box also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (8.4K vs 1). Homebaker's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 91%) and iOS requirement (14.0.0 vs 16.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Recipe Keeper Box sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Homebaker sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Recipe Keeper Box holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Recipe Keeper Box has 8.4K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 91% of Recipe Keeper Box's written reviews are positive against 100% of Homebaker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Recipe Keeper Box ships an update every 3 weeks, Homebaker fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 10, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
