# RecipeVault vs Dishy

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Dishy at none against RecipeVault's 10. Dishy also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 75%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). RecipeVault's advantage is ratings volume (98 vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RecipeVault sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Dishy asks for nothing beyond the download.

Dishy holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RecipeVault has 98 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 75% of RecipeVault's written reviews are positive against 100% of Dishy's.

RecipeVault ships an update every 2 days, Dishy weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 9, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
