# G vs vSave

The clearest difference is rating: vSave at 4.1 against G's 3.4. vSave also leads on review sentiment (60% vs 30%) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). G's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. vSave sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. G asks for nothing beyond the download.

vSave holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: vSave has 1.4K ratings behind it against 242, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 30% of G's written reviews are positive against 60% of vSave's.

G ships an update every 3 months, vSave every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 16, 2026 and September 8, 2026 respectively.
