Both are free to download. BearsVPN sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and CantinaVPN sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 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 — 5.0 for BearsVPN against 4.9 for CantinaVPN. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CantinaVPN has 7 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 16, 2026 and June 5, 2026 respectively.
