Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Clean Protection at free with in-app purchases against Cleaner MAX's subscription. Clean Protection also leads on review sentiment (62% vs 30%) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). Cleaner MAX's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Clean Protection sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $6.49 per 7 days and Cleaner MAX sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Cleaner MAX holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2.1K and 1.2K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of Clean Protection's written reviews are positive against 30% of Cleaner MAX's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Clean Protection ships an update weekly, Cleaner MAX every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.

Reported bugs

5 issues
  • After clicking free trial and putting in the option just for photos and files it recommended me to the premium and after that I can't go nowhere else until I buy premium.
  • Where are the account settings ? And how do I cancel this app?
  • The game is very wonderful in the ads but there's just several problems with the storage cleaning. I tried cleaning duplicate photos and photos I dont need and it makes me go to the free trial no matter how many photos i choose. I am clueless about what to do in the app, now.
  • After watching a video so you can clean your phone another popup about your phone is sick and you can't get back to where you should be after watching the video. It takes you to Google Play to download load it and no way to return to the earlier screen. This has gotten worse in the past several months.
  • It sometimes blackens my screen totally for a while when I try to boost my apps. Maybe this is due to the "display over other apps" setting.
