# iDataSafe vs MySudo

The clearest difference is rating: MySudo at 4.7 against iDataSafe's 3.6. MySudo also leads on ratings volume (16K vs 9) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). iDataSafe's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iDataSafe sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and MySudo sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

MySudo holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MySudo has 16K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of iDataSafe's written reviews are positive against 50% of MySudo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

iDataSafe ships an update every 2 months, MySudo every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
