# FOREWARN vs The Contact Card

The clearest difference is ads: FOREWARN at none against The Contact Card's shown. FOREWARN also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (29K vs 2). The Contact Card's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 78%). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

FOREWARN holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FOREWARN has 29K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of FOREWARN's written reviews are positive against 100% of The Contact Card's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

FOREWARN ships an update every 5 weeks, The Contact Card every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
