Both are free to download. Beekeeper Farm sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. BeeKeeper asks for nothing beyond the download.
BeeKeeper holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 1.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 5 and 6 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of Beekeeper Farm's written reviews are positive against 20% of BeeKeeper's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
