Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: а at weekly against Multifactor's monthly. а also leads on ratings volume (79 vs 4) and review sentiment (30% vs 19%). Multifactor's advantage is iOS requirement (13 vs 15.6). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Multifactor holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: а has 79 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 30% of а's written reviews are positive against 19% of Multifactor's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

а ships an update weekly, Multifactor monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
