Where do you want to eat? Idk, you pick. You’ve had this conversation a hundred times. Grayz ends it. HOW IT WORKS Grayz picks one restaurant near you. No list, no feed, no 40 options within 2 miles. You go, you check in when you’re actually there, and you get stamped. Then you get your next one. NO BROWSING There’s nothing to scroll. You go or you don’t, but you won’t spend 45 minutes deciding and end up at the same place you always do. REAL PLACES, VERIFIED VISITS Every pick is a real restaurant near you, from neighborhood spots that have been there forever to places that just opened. A stamp only counts if you showed up, so sitting on the couch won’t earn you one. RATE WHAT MATTERS After you go, rate it on price, atmosphere, taste and selection. Over time Grayz learns what you’d actually like. YOUR COLLECTION Every verified visit becomes a stub in your collection. It adds up faster than you’d think, and it’s a decent record of how many places you’ve actually tried. BRING SOMEONE Send a ticket to a friend from your Wallet pass or a code, and they join the same table. Grayz also has a Home Screen widget. GRAYZ PRO Free gets you 2 rerolls. Pro gets you 20 in 24 hours, cuisine exclusions, the dessert and coffee switch, a map of your check-ins, logging a place Grayz didn’t pick, and joined check-ins without the weekly cap. Grayz Pro is billed monthly or yearly and renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel in your Apple ID settings.

Verdict

The call

PDQ Chicken's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ratings volume (1.4K vs 1). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
