Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Abbey Wharf at 67% against Dish Cult's 15%. Dish Cult's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 5 months) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Dish Cult holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dish Cult has 130 ratings behind it against 22, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 15% of Dish Cult's written reviews are positive against 67% of Abbey Wharf's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Dish Cult ships an update weekly, Abbey Wharf every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
