Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: VIM at none against Wheel Done's shown. VIM also leads on review sentiment (50% vs 25%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). Wheel Done's advantage is rating (3.9 vs 3.5) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Wheel Done holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wheel Done has 44 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of VIM's written reviews are positive against 25% of Wheel Done's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

VIM ships an update every 2 months, Wheel Done every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 26, 2026 respectively.
