Verdict

The call

Publix and Leo&Lucky’s both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Leo&Lucky’s's written reviews are positive against 70% of Publix's. Leo&Lucky’s also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). Publix's advantage is ratings volume (561K vs 3) and chart position (#74 vs unranked). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
