# FortiToken Mobile vs Microsoft Azure

The clearest difference is rating: Microsoft Azure at 4.8 against FortiToken Mobile's 2.9. Microsoft Azure also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ratings volume (2.8K vs 120). FortiToken Mobile's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. FortiToken Mobile sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Microsoft Azure asks for nothing beyond the download.

Microsoft Azure holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 2.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Microsoft Azure has 2.8K ratings behind it against 120, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 32% of FortiToken Mobile's written reviews are positive against 29% of Microsoft Azure's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

FortiToken Mobile ships an update every 2 months, Microsoft Azure every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
