# My RPI SSH vs Fireguard

The clearest difference is rating: Fireguard at 5.0 against My RPI SSH's 3.0. Fireguard also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). My RPI SSH's advantage is ratings volume (8 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.2 vs 15.6). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. My RPI SSH sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Fireguard asks for nothing beyond the download.

Fireguard holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: My RPI SSH has 8 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

My RPI SSH ships an update every 4 months, Fireguard fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
