ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

2FA Authenticator holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: VPN has 268 ratings behind it against 32, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of 2FA Authenticator's written reviews are positive against 71% of VPN's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

2FA Authenticator ships an update monthly, VPN fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 30, 2026.
