Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Violet at 3.7 against NinjaOne Mobile's 2.6. Violet also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.0). NinjaOne Mobile's advantage is review sentiment (22% vs 0%) and ratings volume (73 vs 3). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Violet holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 2.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NinjaOne Mobile has 73 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Violet's written reviews are positive against 22% of NinjaOne Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 15, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
