Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Pinter App at 62% against Nexgrill's 13%. Pinter App also leads on rating (4.1 vs 1.9) and ratings volume (316 vs 53). Nexgrill's advantage is monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, update cadence, ads 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.
Pinter App holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 1.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pinter App has 316 ratings behind it against 53, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 13% of Nexgrill's written reviews are positive against 62% of Pinter App's.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
