Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Anteats at none against Seabirds Kitchen's shown. Anteats also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 67%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Seabirds Kitchen's advantage is ratings volume (27 vs 3) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
