Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Vor Mobile at 4.6 against shift's 3.0. Vor Mobile also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 11 months) and ratings volume (18 vs 2). shift's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 83%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 26.4). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. shift sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Vor Mobile sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Vor Mobile holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Vor Mobile has 18 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of shift's written reviews are positive against 83% of Vor Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
shift ships an update every 11 months, Vor Mobile every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 17, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
