Verdict
The clearest difference is price: R2V at Free against E's $1.99. E's advantage is review sentiment (80% vs 60%) and chart position (#14 vs unranked). On rating, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases 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
R2V is free to download; E costs $1.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for R2V against 4.6 for E. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: E has 48 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 60% of R2V's written reviews are positive against 80% of E's.
R2V ships an update every 4 weeks, E monthly. The most recent releases landed on August 24, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
