Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: SHARE Rewards at 4.1 against VIVA Plus+'s 2.8. SHARE Rewards also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (323 vs 10). VIVA Plus+'s advantage is review sentiment (58% vs 19%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, ads, 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.
SHARE Rewards holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SHARE Rewards has 323 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 19% of SHARE Rewards's written reviews are positive against 58% of VIVA Plus+'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
SHARE Rewards ships an update weekly, VIVA Plus+ every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and July 30, 2026 respectively.
