With the TrueSecure™ Key app, use your phone to open TrueSecure equipped doors. Stop digging around for key cards & fobs in your bag. When your access control system is equipped with TrueSecure hardware, your smartphone can remain in your pocket to unlock the door. Use your phone to unlock doors – either from your pocket or by holding your phone near the door’s reader. The TrueSecure Key app transmits your digital key via the phone’s Bluetooth to the reader/lock to authenticate your mobile key & unlock the door. Very little battery power is used. Your phone can remain locked with the app open and running in the background. The app can hold multiple keys to open multiple doors. This app will only work with TrueSecure-enabled hardware. Your access control administrator will need to issue you a TrueSecure mobile key credential.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: TrueSecure Key at 4.4 against Vilo's 2.7. Vilo's advantage is review sentiment (21% vs 0%) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
TrueSecure Key holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 7 and 30 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of TrueSecure Key's written reviews are positive against 21% of Vilo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
TrueSecure Key ships an update every 3 months, Vilo every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
