Animals: Friends. Not food. Eating out has never been easier for vegetarians and vegans as the number of restaurants catering to us continues to grow. The Vegman App helps you find vegetarian and vegan, as well as VEG-friendly restaurants - and wherever you are in the world, it tells you how to get to them. Waiting for your food? You can use this time to read our newly improved blog right from the Vegman App! The Vegman App is a companion app for the community based website www.vegman.org. Please note: Vegman is a work in progress. There are many vegan, vegetarian and, VEG-friendly restaurants in the world and we need your help to identify them. Via our website you can upload images, write reviews, rate restaurants you have visited and flag wrong content, so the community can profit from your experiences as you will profit from content submitted by others. This content will also be accessible in the Vegman App and in a upcoming version we will implement the function to submit data directly from the app. We want to thank our worldwide community for helping us build Vegman. Your participation leads to a better world, and the animals and environment thank you for it!

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Veggie Challenge at 4.8 against Vegman's 3.3. Veggie Challenge also leads on review sentiment (91% vs 56%) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). Vegman's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
