Both are free to download. The Vector Converter sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. WhatTheFont asks for nothing beyond the download.
The Vector Converter holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The Vector Converter has 4.9K ratings behind it against 591, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 36% of WhatTheFont's written reviews are positive against 22% of The Vector Converter's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
WhatTheFont ships an update every 4 months, The Vector Converter every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 26, 2026 respectively.
