Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: ServerCat at 4.6 against Air VPN's 3.7. ServerCat also leads on ratings volume (1K vs 68) and chart position (#98 vs unranked). Air VPN's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, 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. ServerCat sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per year. Air VPN asks for nothing beyond the download.
ServerCat holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ServerCat has 1K ratings behind it against 68, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of ServerCat's written reviews are positive against 84% of Air VPN's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 12, 2026 respectively.
