Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: MVGO at 4.7 against Oberstdorf's 2.0. MVGO also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (1.8K vs 1). Oberstdorf's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 39%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

MVGO holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MVGO has 1.8K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Oberstdorf's written reviews are positive against 39% of MVGO's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Oberstdorf ships an update every 6 months, MVGO every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 15, 2026 and September 30, 2026 respectively.
