ClearMate holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 445 and 240 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of Privacy's written reviews are positive against 33% of ClearMate's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Privacy ships an update every 10 days, ClearMate every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on September 14, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
