Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Cheetah at 4.8 against Vol Connect's 2.6. Cheetah also leads on ratings volume (3.1K vs 5) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Vol Connect's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 69%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Cheetah holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 2.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cheetah has 3.1K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Cheetah's written reviews are positive against 100% of Vol Connect's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Cheetah ships an update fortnightly, Vol Connect every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
