Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: GOV.UK ID Check at 4.8 against Klevio's 1.9. GOV.UK ID Check also leads on ratings volume (5.2K vs 13) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). Klevio's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

GOV.UK ID Check holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 1.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GOV.UK ID Check has 5.2K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of Klevio's written reviews are positive against 38% of GOV.UK ID Check's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Klevio ships an update every 2 months, GOV.UK ID Check every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
