miniVAN Touch is a mobile canvassing application that integrates with websites provided by NGP VAN. The miniVAN system allows users to export canvassing lists from VAN onto an iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch. Canvassers can then enter data into their device as they talk to people on their list. When the canvassers connect their device to the Internet over a wireless or cellular network, they can upload their data back to the VAN with the touch of a button. Administrative users on the VAN can then review the data and apply it to the database in one quick step. Canvassing with miniVAN allows NGP VAN clients to spend more time and resources on actually contacting people instead of on data entry. What’s more, it virtually eliminates the lag time between collecting canvass results and putting that data to work.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: MiniVAN Touch at 3.3 against Nintex Mobile's 2.1. MiniVAN Touch also leads on ratings volume (276 vs 21). Nintex Mobile's advantage is review sentiment (60% vs 25%) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.6). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
MiniVAN Touch holds the better App Store score, 3.3 against 2.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MiniVAN Touch has 276 ratings behind it against 21, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of MiniVAN Touch's written reviews are positive against 60% of Nintex Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
MiniVAN Touch ships an update every 2 months, Nintex Mobile every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and August 7, 2026 respectively.
