Verdict
Grove Collaborative and SoCo Studio both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of SoCo Studio's written reviews are positive against 65% of Grove Collaborative's. SoCo Studio also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Grove Collaborative's advantage is ratings volume (29K vs 11) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
