# Find Lost Device vs Authenticator

The clearest difference is rating: Find Lost Device at 4.1 against Authenticator's 3.4. Find Lost Device also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ratings volume (29 vs 5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Find Lost Device sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days and Authenticator sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
