# Apollo ID vs Umbra Insight

The clearest difference is rating: Umbra Insight at 5.0 against Apollo ID's 4.0. Umbra Insight also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 78%). Apollo ID's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months). On price there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Umbra Insight sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $4.99 per month. Apollo ID asks for nothing beyond the download.
