Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Vault! at 4.5 against Gobble's 4.1. Vault! also leads on ratings volume (77 vs 8). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Vault! sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Gobble sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Vault! holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Vault! has 77 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Vault!'s written reviews are positive against 75% of Gobble's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
