# Listify vs The Vault

The clearest difference is rating: Listify at 4.1 against The Vault's 3.7. The Vault's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 6 months) and review sentiment (65% vs 40%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Listify sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and The Vault sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Listify holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The Vault has 162 ratings behind it against 20, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of Listify's written reviews are positive against 65% of The Vault's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Listify ships an update every 6 months, The Vault every 9 days. Both last shipped on November 1, 2026.
