Verdict
CleanEats and ChowTracker both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 58% of ChowTracker's written reviews are positive against 33% of CleanEats's. ChowTracker also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). CleanEats's advantage is ratings volume (5.6K vs 856). On price, rating, update cadence and ads 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. CleanEats sells 19 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and ChowTracker sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
CleanEats holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CleanEats has 5.6K ratings behind it against 856, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of CleanEats's written reviews are positive against 58% of ChowTracker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
CleanEats ships an update every 10 days, ChowTracker fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
