Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Lock Screen 27 at 4.5 against Dark Rem's 3.3. Lock Screen 27 also leads on ratings volume (7.8K vs 34) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Dark Rem's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 71%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dark Rem sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Lock Screen 27 sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Lock Screen 27 holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lock Screen 27 has 7.8K ratings behind it against 34, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Dark Rem's written reviews are positive against 71% of Lock Screen 27's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Dark Rem ships an update every 2 months, Lock Screen 27 fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
