Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Security Home at 4.3 against PIX's 1.8. Security Home also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (11K vs 73). PIX's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 7) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
