SEE YOUR PATTERNS Cooking streaks, top-rated dishes, favorite sources, and a heatmap of every night you cooked.

Verdict

The call

Pie Tap and Tastemaker Recipes both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Tastemaker Recipes's written reviews are positive against 50% of Pie Tap's. Tastemaker Recipes also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 months). Pie Tap's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ratings volume (864 vs 2). On price and rating there is nothing between them.
