ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Fingerprint Box holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tapplock has 243 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Fingerprint Box's written reviews are positive against 65% of Tapplock's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Fingerprint Box ships an update every 4 months, Tapplock every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 8, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
