Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Loop Passport at none against Vibe Alarm's 1. Loop Passport also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). Vibe Alarm's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 weeks). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
