# 1Password vs KnowScam Mobile

The clearest difference is review sentiment: KnowScam Mobile at 100% against 1Password's 39%. KnowScam Mobile also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 6) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). 1Password's advantage is ratings volume (45K vs 15) and chart position (#35 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 1Password sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. KnowScam Mobile asks for nothing beyond the download.

KnowScam Mobile holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7.
