Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TopSet at none against Qwik VBT's 1. TopSet also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks) and review sentiment (100% vs 92%). Qwik VBT's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (41 vs 2). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Qwik VBT holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Qwik VBT has 41 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 92% of Qwik VBT's written reviews are positive against 100% of TopSet's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Qwik VBT ships an update every 5 weeks, TopSet fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
