Founded by an Ivorian American born in the U.S - An app that lets you find Black Owned Businesses from all the Black Diaspora conveniently in one place, and also lets you help the community through Mutual Aid. (Some people asked that I update the descriptions so people can know which ethnicity created the app before downloading, so people can choose whether they'd like to download it or not. This is the reason the descriptions and subtitles have been updated- not as a boast)

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Miiriya at every 8 days against UCHE's every 5 months. Miiriya also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.2) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). UCHE's advantage is review sentiment (86% vs 70%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support 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.
Miiriya holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Miiriya has 102 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 86% of UCHE's written reviews are positive against 70% of Miiriya's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
UCHE ships an update every 5 months, Miiriya every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on September 15, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
