Two apps, side by side, with the receipts.
When you have already narrowed it to two, a list of ten is no use. Each of these takes one matchup and settles it on price, platforms, how recipes get in, and whether the app works out nutrition or expects you to type it. Every figure carries the source it came from and the date it was checked, because this category is full of comparisons quoting prices that changed years ago.
