ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

The Vector Converter holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The Vector Converter has 4.9K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 58% of Vector Paint + DropBox Sync's written reviews are positive against 22% of The Vector Converter's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Vector Paint + DropBox Sync ships an update every 2 months, The Vector Converter every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 9, 2026 respectively.
