Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Vora at 4.6 against Rack's 4.0. Vora also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 10 days) and ratings volume (128 vs 12). Rack's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (86% vs 74%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Vora sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $12.99 per month and Rack sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Vora holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Vora has 128 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of Vora's written reviews are positive against 86% of Rack's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Vora ships an update every 3 days, Rack every 10 days. Both last shipped on November 5, 2026.
