ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

LocalDevVPN holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LocalDevVPN has 121 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 91% of LocalDevVPN's written reviews are positive against 100% of PoseKit's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

LocalDevVPN ships an update every 2 days, PoseKit every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
