# TECO vs AI Security

The clearest difference is rating: TECO at 5.0 against AI Security's 4.5. TECO also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 12) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). AI Security's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 12 months) and ratings volume (9.6K vs 1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. AI Security sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. TECO asks for nothing beyond the download.

TECO holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: AI Security has 9.6K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

TECO ships an update every 12 months, AI Security every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 3, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
