# myBigY vs GrocerSave

The clearest difference is rating: GrocerSave at 5.0 against myBigY's 2.5. GrocerSave also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 16.0). myBigY's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (1.1K vs 3). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

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

GrocerSave holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: myBigY has 1.1K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.

myBigY ships an update every 3 weeks, GrocerSave every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
