CookieCal is a useful utility for cooks everywhere CookieCal can show you the equivalent Celsius, Fahrenheit, or gas mark for all of the most common oven temperatures. CookieCal also provides you with a written description of the oven heat as some older recipes provide. Additionally, you can enter a temperature in Fahrenheit, Celsius, or Kelvin, and CookieCal will automatically convert that temperature to the other two. CookieCal easily converts between different types of volume measurements, weight measurements, or even between volume and weight measurements. Need to convert an ingredient between volume and weight measurements that isn't listed? As long as you have the density for that ingredient, simply enter the density figure into the density box and CookieCal will do the rest.

Today's menu and the à la carte menu of the restaurants around you, at any moment — published by the restaurants themselves. AROUND YOU The restaurants of the icioncuisine.com Guide, nearest first: today's menu published this morning, full menu, opening hours, photos, ratings. Set the radius, filter those with a menu, open now, with a terrace, bookable, under €20. SEARCH WHAT YOU FEEL LIKE EATING A dish, a restaurant, a city, a cuisine: "quenelle", "ramen", "Annecy", "Italian". The Guide tells you where it is on today's menu or à la carte, with the price. THE MAP Every restaurant around you on a real map; in green, those that published their menu today. Tap, and the page opens. YOUR FAVOURITES LET YOU KNOW The heart on a page keeps the restaurant and notifies you in the morning when it publishes today's menu, or when it has news — one notification per restaurant, not ten. And once a week, the new restaurants around you. BOOK, ORDER, CALL Book a table in two taps, order takeaway when the restaurant offers it, find your bookings, call or get directions. NO PASSWORD A code by SMS or e-mail is enough. If you had the Menu du Jour app, your favourites are still there. Le Guide is the app of icioncuisine.com, published by Dujour SAS. Menus are published by the restaurants on dujour.pro; prices are indicative.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: IOC at Free against CookieCal's $0.99. IOC also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 36 months). CookieCal's advantage is chart position (#188 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
