Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: John Dory's at none against McDonald’s's shown. John Dory's also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (15.5 vs 17.0). McDonald’s's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 17%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
