# ClearMate vs ioSecure

The clearest difference is review sentiment: ioSecure at 95% against ClearMate's 33%. ClearMate's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (240 vs 34). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ClearMate sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $9.99 per 7 days and ioSecure sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ClearMate holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ClearMate has 240 ratings behind it against 34, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of ClearMate's written reviews are positive against 95% of ioSecure's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

ClearMate ships an update every 9 days, ioSecure every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and August 13, 2026 respectively.
