# Pass vs Durin

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Durin at 100% against Pass's 85%. Pass's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (135 vs 10). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

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.
