Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Frantix! at 100% against Pasta Machine's 16%. Frantix! also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 22) and ads (none vs shown). Pasta Machine's advantage is ratings volume (8.7K vs 3) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
