# Vulpe vs Retime

The clearest difference is rating: Retime at 5.0 against Vulpe's 4.3. Retime also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 weeks). Vulpe's advantage is review sentiment (95% vs 72%) and ratings volume (4 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Vulpe sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and Retime sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Retime holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 4 and 1 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 95% of Vulpe's written reviews are positive against 72% of Retime's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Vulpe ships an update every 2 weeks, Retime every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
