Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Cryptical at 92% against Passwords Generator's 0%. Cryptical also leads on ratings volume (3.9K vs 1). Passwords Generator's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Passwords Generator holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cryptical has 3.9K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 92% of Cryptical's written reviews are positive against 0% of Passwords Generator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Cryptical ships an update every 3 months, Passwords Generator every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 6, 2026 respectively.
