Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Proton Pass at 4.8 against Everykey's 4.2. Proton Pass also leads on review sentiment (67% vs 44%) and ratings volume (8.7K vs 196). Everykey's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
