Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Space Frog Intern at every 9 days against Vault!'s every 5 months. Space Frog Intern also leads on review sentiment (94% vs 71%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 11.0). Vault!'s advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.3). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
