# 1Password vs Safe+

The clearest difference is ratings volume: 1Password at 46K against Safe+'s 4. 1Password also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly) and chart position (#28 vs unranked). Safe+'s advantage is iOS requirement (12.1 vs 18.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 1Password sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Safe+ sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for 1Password against 4.8 for Safe+. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 1Password has 46K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.

1Password ships an update fortnightly, Safe+ monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
