# OBDeleven VAG vs OBDocker

The clearest difference is rating: OBDeleven VAG at 4.5 against OBDocker's 3.9. OBDeleven VAG also leads on ratings volume (7.1K vs 17). OBDocker's advantage is review sentiment (47% vs 27%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. OBDeleven VAG sells 8 one-off in-app purchases and OBDocker sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

OBDeleven VAG holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OBDeleven VAG has 7.1K ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 27% of OBDeleven VAG's written reviews are positive against 47% of OBDocker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

OBDeleven VAG ships an update every 3 weeks, OBDocker fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 9, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
