# Grill Sort™ vs Grill Cooking

The clearest difference is rating: Grill Sort™ at 4.8 against Grill Cooking's 3.9. Grill Sort™ also leads on ratings volume (14K vs 650). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Grill Sort™ sells 23 one-off in-app purchases and Grill Cooking sells 26 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Grill Sort™ holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Grill Sort™ has 14K ratings behind it against 650, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 18% of Grill Sort™'s written reviews are positive against 23% of Grill Cooking's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
