The call

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Passwords Generator holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: pwd has 49 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of pwd's written reviews are positive against 0% of Passwords Generator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

pwd ships an update every 11 months, Passwords Generator every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 6, 2026 respectively.
