# NextVPN vs DNS Checker Pro

The clearest difference is price: NextVPN at Free against DNS Checker Pro's $2.99. NextVPN also leads on ratings volume (45K vs 1) and chart position (#20 vs unranked). DNS Checker Pro's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and ads (none vs shown). On device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

NextVPN is free to download; DNS Checker Pro costs $2.99 up front. NextVPN sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.49 per 7 days. DNS Checker Pro asks for nothing beyond the download.

DNS Checker Pro holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NextVPN has 45K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 67% of NextVPN's written reviews are positive against 100% of DNS Checker Pro's.
