Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Hyper at Free against Vivid Studio's $4.99. Hyper also leads on rating (4.6 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (11K vs 24). Vivid Studio's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 25) and review sentiment (68% vs 40%). On update cadence, ads, device support and iOS requirement 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
Hyper is free to download; Vivid Studio costs $4.99 up front. Hyper sells 25 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Vivid Studio asks for nothing beyond the download.
Hyper holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hyper has 11K ratings behind it against 24, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of Vivid Studio's written reviews are positive against 40% of Hyper's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Vivid Studio ships an update every 3 weeks, Hyper every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
