Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Bash Baking at none against King Arthur Baking's shown. Bash Baking also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 79%) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). King Arthur Baking's advantage is ratings volume (998 vs 2) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

King Arthur Baking holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: King Arthur Baking has 998 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Bash Baking's written reviews are positive against 79% of King Arthur Baking's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
