ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Neptune holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Neptune has 1.2K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of Neptune's written reviews are positive against 100% of Lionic Mobile Security's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Neptune ships an update every 4 days, Lionic Mobile Security every 12 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
