Verdict
FREEIP and Cyber Secure both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Cyber Secure's written reviews are positive against 25% of FREEIP's. Cyber Secure also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). FREEIP's advantage is ratings volume (1.2K vs 8) and update cadence (monthly vs every 4 months). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
