# Keeper Password Manager vs Strongbox Pro

The clearest difference is price: Keeper Password Manager at Free against Strongbox Pro's $99.99. Keeper Password Manager also leads on ratings volume (229K vs 338) and rating (4.9 vs 4.7). Strongbox Pro's advantage is review sentiment (86% vs 65%) and device support (5 vs 3). On update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Keeper Password Manager is free to download; Strongbox Pro costs $99.99 up front. Keeper Password Manager sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $13.99 per year and Strongbox Pro sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Keeper Password Manager holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Keeper Password Manager has 229K ratings behind it against 338, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 65% of Keeper Password Manager's written reviews are positive against 86% of Strongbox Pro's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Keeper Password Manager ships an update every 3 weeks, Strongbox Pro every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
