Build your shopping list before you go, check things off as you shop, and scan products when you want a closer look at what’s inside. Grocery Sidekick checks food against your ingredient watches, dietary preferences, and nutrition thresholds. Explore ingredients to learn what they are, why they’re used, and why some people choose to avoid them. See exactly what your Sidekick found and why, then find similar alternatives that better match what you’re looking for. With Grocery Sidekick you can: • Build a shopping list and check off items as you shop • Scan a barcode and quickly get the information you care about • Understand ingredients, what they do, and why they’re used • Find alternatives that better fit your preferences • Watch for milk, eggs, soy, peanuts, tree nuts, sesame, fish, shellfish, gluten, MSG, and seed oils • Choose vegan, vegetarian, or pescatarian preferences • Set your own thresholds for sodium, added sugar, saturated fat, carbs, and calories • See the ingredient or package evidence behind every finding • Save products and revisit previous scans Your list. Your food. Your preferences. Your Sidekick. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Grocery Sidekick at none against OnlyDrams's shown. Grocery Sidekick also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). OnlyDrams's advantage is chart position (#29 vs #193) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
