# Lock In vs QuickPlate

The clearest difference is rating: QuickPlate at 5.0 against Lock In's 4.5. QuickPlate also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). Lock In's advantage is ratings volume (73 vs 2) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Lock In sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $17.99 per month and QuickPlate sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

QuickPlate holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lock In has 73 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Lock In ships an update every 3 weeks, QuickPlate every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
