# Devyce vs vNum

The clearest difference is monetization model: vNum at free with in-app purchases against Devyce's subscription. vNum also leads on ratings volume (276 vs 22) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Devyce's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Devyce sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per month and vNum sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 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 — 4.3 for Devyce against 4.4 for vNum. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: vNum has 276 ratings behind it against 22, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 64% of Devyce's written reviews are positive against 71% of vNum's.

Devyce ships an update every 2 weeks, vNum fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 20, 2026.
