# Tunnel Guard vs Tracker Protection

The clearest difference is rating: Tunnel Guard at 4.8 against Tracker Protection's 4.2. Tunnel Guard also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (694 vs 77). Tracker Protection's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Tunnel Guard sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Tracker Protection sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Tunnel Guard holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tunnel Guard has 694 ratings behind it against 77, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of Tunnel Guard's written reviews are positive against 53% of Tracker Protection's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Tunnel Guard ships an update fortnightly, Tracker Protection every 4 months. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
