# Mesh vs Group2FA

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Group2FA at 100% against Mesh's 28%. Group2FA also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.4). Mesh's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (766 vs 6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Mesh sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month and Group2FA sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $1.59 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Group2FA holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mesh has 766 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 28% of Mesh's written reviews are positive against 100% of Group2FA's.

Mesh ships an update weekly, Group2FA every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 10, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
