Cooking a perfect steak is difficult. Very difficult. Experienced master chefs learns the process by heart after years of trial and error and still have to give the steak their full attention to get it just right every time. Some seem think that it is just putting the meat in the pan and flipping after some time has passed. There is A LOT more to a perfect steak than that. First of all, every piece of meat is different and has different characteristics. What type of meat is it? How thick is it? What rarity is desired? Different combinations of these attributes requires different preparations and a whole new set of timings. Each meat has to be cooked, flipped and rest at different heats and times to make it your desired doneness. This app makes the process a whole lot easier! Its advanced algorithms automatically calculates with second-precision each step of the process based on exactly your steak and how you want it done. No more leather-steaks when you want it done medium or blood-dripping steaks when you want it done medium-well. This app makes you a master chef every time.

Steak Guide's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 13.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
