Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Vivino at 4.8 against CELLR's 4.4. Vivino also leads on ratings volume (137K vs 72) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). CELLR's advantage is iOS requirement (9.0 vs 18.6). On price, review sentiment, 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
Both are free to download. Vivino sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and CELLR sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Vivino holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Vivino has 137K ratings behind it against 72, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of Vivino's written reviews are positive against 62% of CELLR's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Vivino ships an update every 5 days, CELLR every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and June 1, 2026 respectively.
