Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: VitaWerks at 4.4 against SambaCare's 3.0. VitaWerks also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (230 vs 10). SambaCare's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 25%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
VitaWerks holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: VitaWerks has 230 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of VitaWerks's written reviews are positive against 50% of SambaCare's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
VitaWerks ships an update every 2 weeks, SambaCare every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on September 19, 2026 and June 11, 2026 respectively.
