# My Consumer Cellular vs PC Matic Mobile Security

The clearest difference is update cadence: My Consumer Cellular at every 5 weeks against PC Matic Mobile Security's every 17 months. My Consumer Cellular also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and ratings volume (1.6K vs 90). PC Matic Mobile Security's advantage is rating (3.6 vs 3.4) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

PC Matic Mobile Security holds the better App Store score, 3.6 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: My Consumer Cellular has 1.6K ratings behind it against 90, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 26% of My Consumer Cellular's written reviews are positive against 10% of PC Matic Mobile Security's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

My Consumer Cellular ships an update every 5 weeks, PC Matic Mobile Security every 17 months. Both last shipped on October 16, 2026.
