Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Dawayiy at none against Chefaa's shown. Dawayiy also leads on review sentiment (78% vs 44%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Chefaa's advantage is ratings volume (671 vs 10) and rating (4.0 vs 3.8). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Chefaa holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Chefaa has 671 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 44% of Chefaa's written reviews are positive against 78% of Dawayiy's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Chefaa ships an update every 3 weeks, Dawayiy every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 2, 2026 respectively.
