Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Quit Vaping at free with in-app purchases against Pause's subscription. Quit Vaping also leads on ratings volume (12K vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). Pause's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 75%). On price, rating, update cadence and ads 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. Quit Vaping sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and Pause sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Quit Vaping against 5.0 for Pause. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Quit Vaping has 12K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 75% of Quit Vaping's written reviews are positive against 100% of Pause's.
Quit Vaping ships an update every 10 days, Pause every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 14, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
