Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: BLACKTEMPLE at none against Secure VPN's 2. BLACKTEMPLE also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (51% vs 30%). Secure VPN's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly) and rating (4.0 vs 3.8). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Secure VPN sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. BLACKTEMPLE asks for nothing beyond the download.
Secure VPN holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 42 and 163 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of BLACKTEMPLE's written reviews are positive against 30% of Secure VPN's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
BLACKTEMPLE ships an update weekly, Secure VPN every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
