Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Ark Trader holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ark Trader has 98 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of VertexFX Trader's written reviews are positive against 40% of Ark Trader's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
VertexFX Trader ships an update every 2 months, Ark Trader every 4 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
