Verdict

The call

OurPantry and Home both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Home's written reviews are positive against 67% of OurPantry's. OurPantry's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 17 months) and ratings volume (15 vs 2). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
