Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: SmartGate IOType at 5.0 against NetVPN's 4.3. SmartGate IOType also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). NetVPN's advantage is ratings volume (117 vs 1) and review sentiment (50% vs 29%). On price, in-app purchases and device support 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
SmartGate IOType holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NetVPN has 117 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 29% of SmartGate IOType's written reviews are positive against 50% of NetVPN's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
SmartGate IOType ships an update every 2 months, NetVPN every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
