# DormDish AI vs U

The clearest difference is ads: U at none against DormDish AI's shown. U also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). DormDish AI's advantage is ratings volume (10 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DormDish AI sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and U sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

U holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DormDish AI has 10 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
