Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Uplinks NOW! at 5.0 against VPN's 4.3. Uplinks NOW! also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). VPN's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (58 vs 6). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
