# Cooking Mama vs Find Sort Match

The clearest difference is rating: Find Sort Match at 4.7 against Cooking Mama's 4.1. Cooking Mama's advantage is review sentiment (62% vs 31%) and chart position (#30 vs #114). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cooking Mama sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Find Sort Match sells 13 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Find Sort Match holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 9.8K and 7.2K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of Cooking Mama's written reviews are positive against 31% of Find Sort Match's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Cooking Mama ships an update monthly, Find Sort Match every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on October 29, 2026.
