Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: 360 Encrypt at free with in-app purchases against ID Lock's subscription. 360 Encrypt also leads on iOS requirement (14 vs 17.6). ID Lock's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (787 vs 8). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

ID Lock holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ID Lock has 787 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of ID Lock's written reviews are positive against 78% of 360 Encrypt's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

ID Lock ships an update every 3 weeks, 360 Encrypt every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 9, 2026 respectively.
