Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Codebook Password Manager at 4.8 against Password PRO's 3.7. Codebook Password Manager also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (2.3K vs 9). Password PRO's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 87%). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Codebook Password Manager sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $7.00 per month and Password PRO sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Codebook Password Manager holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Codebook Password Manager has 2.3K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 87% of Codebook Password Manager's written reviews are positive against 100% of Password PRO's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 18, 2026 respectively.
