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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
VAIRKKO holds the better App Store score, 3.3 against 2.9. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 10 and 32 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of FieldStar's written reviews are positive against 20% of VAIRKKO's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
FieldStar ships an update weekly, VAIRKKO fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on July 4, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
