Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Pass holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pass has 135 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 85% of Pass's written reviews are positive against 100% of Durin's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Pass ships an update every 3 months, Durin every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
