# Biter vs Gastronomika

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Biter at 493 against Gastronomika's 1. Biter also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks) and chart position (#92 vs unranked). Gastronomika's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Biter sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $15.00 per month and Gastronomika sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $9.89 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Gastronomika holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Biter has 493 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Biter ships an update every 3 days, Gastronomika every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
