# OpenRice vs 下厨房海外版

The clearest difference is rating: 下厨房海外版 at 4.7 against OpenRice's 4.1. 下厨房海外版 also leads on ratings volume (946 vs 88). OpenRice's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 15). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 下厨房海外版 sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. OpenRice asks for nothing beyond the download.

下厨房海外版 holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 下厨房海外版 has 946 ratings behind it against 88, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 29% of OpenRice's written reviews are positive against 22% of 下厨房海外版's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
