# VPN Protectify vs Security Master

The clearest difference is monetization model: Security Master at free with in-app purchases against VPN Protectify's subscription. Security Master also leads on rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and review sentiment (55% vs 29%). VPN Protectify's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. VPN Protectify sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $17.95 per 7 days and Security Master sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Security Master holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Security Master has 4K ratings behind it against 172, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 29% of VPN Protectify's written reviews are positive against 55% of Security Master's.

VPN Protectify ships an update fortnightly, Security Master every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on October 5, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
