Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Hillbilly's at none against Shake Shack's shown. Hillbilly's also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.0). Shake Shack's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 14 months) and chart position (#43 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
