# Recipes for Swift vs CodeWiki

The clearest difference is update cadence: CodeWiki at every 2 weeks against Recipes for Swift's every 2 months. CodeWiki also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 88%) and chart position (#197 vs unranked). Recipes for Swift's advantage is ratings volume (6 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Recipes for Swift sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and CodeWiki sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

CodeWiki holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Recipes for Swift has 6 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 88% of Recipes for Swift's written reviews are positive against 100% of CodeWiki's.

Recipes for Swift ships an update every 2 months, CodeWiki every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
