Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Fredy's Tucan at none against Eater's shown. Fredy's Tucan also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.1) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). Eater's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (61 vs 20). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Fredy's Tucan holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 20 and 61 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 38% of Fredy's Tucan's written reviews are positive against 42% of Eater's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Fredy's Tucan ships an update every 4 months, Eater weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 3, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
