Both are free to download. Wire sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. iHelp BR asks for nothing beyond the download.
Wire holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 10 and 13 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 88% of iHelp BR's written reviews are positive against 29% of Wire's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
iHelp BR ships an update every 5 months, Wire fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 6, 2026 and July 7, 2026 respectively.
