# Fast Flash vs VPN

The clearest difference is review sentiment: VPN at 90% against Fast Flash's 37%. VPN also leads on price (Free vs $2.99) and rating (4.6 vs 3.2). Fast Flash's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On device support there is nothing between them.

VPN is free to download; Fast Flash costs $2.99 up front. VPN sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Fast Flash asks for nothing beyond the download.

VPN holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: VPN has 2.1M ratings behind it against 159, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 37% of Fast Flash's written reviews are positive against 90% of VPN's.

Fast Flash ships an update every 4 months, VPN weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
