Verdict
VOCOlinc and Chookbook both sit at 3.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 80% of Chookbook's written reviews are positive against 45% of VOCOlinc's. Chookbook also leads on iOS requirement (8.0 vs 12.0). VOCOlinc's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (2.4K vs 7). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
