Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: LH Eats at 100% against shake smart's 47%. LH Eats also leads on update cadence (every 5 months vs every 14 months) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 15.6). shake smart's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (196 vs 17). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
shake smart holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: shake smart has 196 ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 47% of shake smart's written reviews are positive against 100% of LH Eats's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
shake smart ships an update every 14 months, LH Eats every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 15, 2026 respectively.
