Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Truffle at 4.6 against Mukbee's 3.3. Truffle also leads on review sentiment (65% vs 24%) and ratings volume (336 vs 37). Mukbee's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
