Verdict
Sign and UniFi Verify both sit at 5.0 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Sign's written reviews are positive against 34% of UniFi Verify's. Sign also leads on iOS requirement (8.0 vs 17.0). UniFi Verify's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (12K vs 3). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
