Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: SoFresh App at 64% against Hello Bistro's 23%. SoFresh App also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (10K vs 690). Hello Bistro's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
