# VPN vs Ask Bloom

The clearest difference is rating: Ask Bloom at 5.0 against VPN's 4.3. Ask Bloom also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). VPN's advantage is ratings volume (34 vs 3) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. VPN sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and Ask Bloom sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Ask Bloom holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: VPN has 34 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.

VPN ships an update every 2 months, Ask Bloom every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
