Vurro is an independent, third-party app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Substack, Inc. "Substack" is a trademark of Substack, Inc., used here only to describe compatibility. Vurro is a third-party Substack client that adds the chat tools Substack doesn't have. If you read Substack chats regularly, you already know what's missing: no way to search messages, no way to bookmark, no way to filter by user, no way to view quoted context inline. Vurro fixes all of that. WHAT VURRO ADDS β’ Search β find message text across threads and subthreads, with results highlighted β’ Bookmarks β save any message (thread, reply, or subthread reply) to a dedicated area; tap to jump back to its place in the chat β’ Watched Users β filter the chat to show only posts from the people you care about β’ Direct Links β copy a link to any thread or message and share exactly what you're talking about β’ Filter Chips β combinable filters: bookmarked + your replies + specific users β mix and match β’ Inline Quotes β see quoted messages inline; no jumping back through history for context β’ Accurate Read/Unread -Substack's own apps mark an entire thread read the moment you open it. Vurro tracks what you've actually seen on screen β so when a busy thread has more messages than you can get through in one sitting, close the app and come right back to the first one you haven't read. On by default; mark anything unread whenever you like. PRIVACY You sign in to Substack directly β Vurro never sees your password or 2FA code. Your bookmarks, watched-user lists, and app settings stay on your device. No ads, no analytics, no data selling. Full details at vurro.net/privacy. TERMS OF USE https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ A THIRD-PARTY CLIENT Vurro is not affiliated with Substack. It's built by an independent developer because the official chat experience needed help. The browser extension (Chrome and Firefox) is the original Vurro β the mobile app brings the same tools to your phone. Free to use. Built by @ma314 on Substack.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Vurro at weekly against VOKALZ's every 3 weeks. VOKALZ's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
