pluris
Read full descriptionHide full description
pluris is five tools in one, and all of them run on your iPhone. Tidy your contacts, clear out duplicate photos, block nuisance calls, filter junk texts, and keep your passwords in a vault that syncs through your own iCloud Keychain. There is no pluris account, and no server of ours holds your data. A PASSWORD VAULT, FREE Logins, passkeys, API keys, bank cards, identity documents, recovery phrases and Wi-Fi details, behind Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode. pluris fills passwords and signs you in with passkeys anywhere iOS offers AutoFill. The whole vault is in the free version. YOUR KEYCHAIN, NOT OUR SERVER Vault items live in the iOS keychain and sync between your own devices through iCloud Keychain. Nothing is uploaded to us, because there is nowhere to upload it to. Take an encrypted backup whenever you want one, or a plain CSV or JSON if you are moving to another manager. Deleted items wait 30 days in a recycle bin before they are really gone. With pluris Pro, Google Gemini can also tidy the vault through pluris cloud — better names, groups and categories, notes split into items — an opt-in that sends only titles, groups, categories and notes, with every secret replaced by a placeholder. TIDY CONTACTS Find duplicates and merge them. Repair phone numbers that are missing digits or carry a malformed prefix, and fix country codes across the whole address book. Smart groups organise contacts as they change. Import and export vCard and CSV. RECLAIM YOUR STORAGE Find exact duplicate photos and videos, and near-duplicates too — the burst of twelve almost-identical shots. Compress what you keep. You see every match before anything is deleted, and nothing is deleted without you. STOP THE CALLS Block numbers outright or by prefix, label the ones you want to recognise on sight, and let Call Shield follow your Focus modes. FILTER THE TEXTS Messages from people who are not in your contacts are sorted into junk, promotional and transactional, using keywords you control, in your own language. Safe keywords stop the filter catching something you were waiting for. NOTHING LEAVES YOUR PHONE Your contacts, photos and messages are read on the device and never sent anywhere. pluris has no backend for your data, no analytics and no advertising. The one thing that can leave is the redacted description the Pro organiser sends to Google Gemini, and only after you switch it on. FREE, AND PRO Free gives you the whole vault, single merges and deletions, five blocked numbers, five caller labels, three prefix rules and twelve keywords per SMS category. Pro lifts the caps and adds the bulk tools: merge every duplicate at once, clean all duplicate photos, compress in bulk, repair numbers in bulk, unlimited import and export, and a community spam number list with regional rules. Requires iOS 18.6 or later. Localised in over 20 languages. Terms & Conditions: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Actions at none against pluris's 3. pluris's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly) and iOS requirement (18.6 vs 26.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
