# Who's Responding? vs Advanced Secure

The clearest difference is rating: Advanced Secure at 5.0 against Who's Responding?'s 3.3. Who's Responding?'s advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and review sentiment (32% vs 0%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Advanced Secure sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Who's Responding? asks for nothing beyond the download.

Advanced Secure holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Who's Responding? has 7 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 32% of Who's Responding?'s written reviews are positive against 0% of Advanced Secure's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Who's Responding? ships an update fortnightly, Advanced Secure every 12 months. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 9, 2026 respectively.
