# FOREVER® vs Asurion Photos

The clearest difference is rating: Asurion Photos at 4.8 against FOREVER®'s 4.0. Asurion Photos also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ratings volume (6.3K vs 281). FOREVER®'s advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 39%). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. FOREVER® sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Asurion Photos asks for nothing beyond the download.

Asurion Photos holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Asurion Photos has 6.3K ratings behind it against 281, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of FOREVER®'s written reviews are positive against 39% of Asurion Photos's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 11, 2026.
