Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: MealsByChefB at none against 3Natives's shown. MealsByChefB also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 73%) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). 3Natives's advantage is ratings volume (1.1K vs 23). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
3Natives holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 3Natives has 1.1K ratings behind it against 23, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of MealsByChefB's written reviews are positive against 73% of 3Natives's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
MealsByChefB ships an update every 3 weeks, 3Natives fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
