Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Cuppings at 4.6 against Pintxos's 2.0. Cuppings also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Pintxos's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 8 months) and review sentiment (41% vs 25%). On price, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Cuppings holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 14 and 18 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of Cuppings's written reviews are positive against 41% of Pintxos's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Cuppings ships an update every 8 months, Pintxos every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
