Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hold Line at none against VIP Guard's 1. Hold Line also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). VIP Guard's advantage is ratings volume (113K vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.5 vs 18.5). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
