Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: efeed at 4.8 against Birch Coffee's 2.4. efeed also leads on ratings volume (347 vs 14) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks). Birch Coffee's advantage is monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 16.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

efeed holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: efeed has 347 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 11% of efeed's written reviews are positive against 17% of Birch Coffee's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

efeed ships an update every 2 weeks, Birch Coffee every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and August 1, 2026 respectively.
