# Gyu vs PantryScore

The clearest difference is update cadence: PantryScore at fortnightly against Gyu's every 4 months. PantryScore also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 79%). Gyu's advantage is ratings volume (5.8K vs 2) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 26.2). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

PantryScore holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gyu has 5.8K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 79% of Gyu's written reviews are positive against 100% of PantryScore's.

Gyu ships an update every 4 months, PantryScore fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
