Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: ForkMore at Free against Bakiva's $3.99. ForkMore also leads on ratings volume (10 vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 16.0). Bakiva's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
