Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: UCSC Menu at 100% against Nick the Greek's 28%. UCSC Menu also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). Nick the Greek's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.7 vs 4.2). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Nick the Greek holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Nick the Greek has 1.6K ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 28% of Nick the Greek's written reviews are positive against 100% of UCSC Menu's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Nick the Greek ships an update weekly, UCSC Menu fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
