Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: URnetwork at every 2 weeks against DVPN's every 3 months. URnetwork also leads on ratings volume (290 vs 16) and iOS requirement (16.6 vs 18.0). DVPN's advantage is review sentiment (92% vs 75%). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DVPN sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and URnetwork sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for DVPN against 4.6 for URnetwork. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: URnetwork has 290 ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 92% of DVPN's written reviews are positive against 75% of URnetwork's.
DVPN ships an update every 3 months, URnetwork every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 17, 2026 respectively.
