Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Pawdoll at 4.6 against Segment VPN's 4.1. Pawdoll also leads on ratings volume (38 vs 7). Segment VPN's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Pawdoll sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Segment VPN asks for nothing beyond the download.
Pawdoll holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pawdoll has 38 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 91% of Pawdoll's written reviews are positive against 100% of Segment VPN's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
