Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Daily Provisions at 4.9 against Carrot Express's 3.1. Daily Provisions also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months) and review sentiment (43% vs 19%). Carrot Express's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
