# Security Master vs Encryptor

The clearest difference is monetization model: Security Master at free with in-app purchases against Encryptor's subscription. Security Master also leads on rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (4K vs 29). Encryptor's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Security Master sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per 7 days and Encryptor sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. 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 29, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of Security Master's written reviews are positive against 57% of Encryptor's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Security Master ships an update every 11 days, Encryptor fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 19, 2026 and September 8, 2026 respectively.
