# Meal Planner & Weekly Menu vs Sayvr

The clearest difference is rating: Meal Planner & Weekly Menu at 4.8 against Sayvr's 4.0. Meal Planner & Weekly Menu also leads on ratings volume (1.7K vs 1) and update cadence (every 11 days vs monthly). Sayvr's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 89%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Meal Planner & Weekly Menu sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per year and Sayvr sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Meal Planner & Weekly Menu holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Meal Planner & Weekly Menu has 1.7K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 89% of Meal Planner & Weekly Menu's written reviews are positive against 100% of Sayvr's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Meal Planner & Weekly Menu ships an update every 11 days, Sayvr monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
