Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: GoodRec at 14K against Nukl's 1. GoodRec also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and chart position (#204 vs unranked). Nukl's advantage is monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for GoodRec against 5.0 for Nukl. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GoodRec has 14K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
GoodRec ships an update fortnightly, Nukl every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
