# LINE CHEF vs RimTHang

The clearest difference is rating: LINE CHEF at 4.7 against RimTHang's 4.0. LINE CHEF also leads on ratings volume (456 vs 4). RimTHang's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. LINE CHEF sells 34 one-off in-app purchases and RimTHang sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

LINE CHEF holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LINE CHEF has 456 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 47% of LINE CHEF's written reviews are positive against 70% of RimTHang's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

LINE CHEF ships an update every 2 months, RimTHang monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
