Verdict

The call

Password Generator's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

PSWD holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PSWD has 153 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 97% of PSWD's written reviews are positive against 100% of Password Generator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
