Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: AdLock at 4.4 against BlockZilla's 2.0. AdLock also leads on review sentiment (35% vs 10%) and ratings volume (2.1K vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases 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. AdLock sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and BlockZilla sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
AdLock holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: AdLock has 2.1K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 35% of AdLock's written reviews are positive against 10% of BlockZilla's.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
