# CH3 Plus vs TrueID

The clearest difference is rating: TrueID at 4.8 against CH3 Plus's 3.0. TrueID also leads on ratings volume (1.6K vs 181). CH3 Plus's advantage is device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.4). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. CH3 Plus sells 30 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and TrueID sells 34 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

TrueID holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TrueID has 1.6K ratings behind it against 181, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 30% of CH3 Plus's written reviews are positive against 32% of TrueID's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. Both last shipped on September 25, 2026.
