Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: aa Pro at none against Pasta Machine's 22. aa Pro also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (50% vs 16%). Pasta Machine's advantage is ratings volume (8.7K vs 5). On price, rating, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pasta Machine sells 22 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. aa Pro asks for nothing beyond the download.
Pasta Machine holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pasta Machine has 8.7K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of aa Pro's written reviews are positive against 16% of Pasta Machine's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 9, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
