# Password Manager vs aLock

The clearest difference is rating: aLock at 4.7 against Password Manager's 4.1. Password Manager's advantage is review sentiment (60% vs 44%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Password Manager sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $6.49 per 6 months and aLock sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

aLock holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 22 and 32 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Password Manager's written reviews are positive against 44% of aLock's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Password Manager ships an update every 2 weeks, aLock every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
