Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: RWRD at 83% against Vagabond Wines's 38%. RWRD also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (7 vs 1). Vagabond Wines's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 2.7) and in-app purchases (none vs 1). On price, ads, monetization model 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. RWRD sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $2.99 per month. Vagabond Wines asks for nothing beyond the download.
Vagabond Wines holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RWRD has 7 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of RWRD's written reviews are positive against 38% of Vagabond Wines's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
RWRD ships an update every 3 weeks, Vagabond Wines every 2 months. Both last shipped on October 29, 2026.
