Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
MSNG holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 12 and 40 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of Guard Online's written reviews are positive against 0% of MSNG's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Guard Online ships an update monthly, MSNG every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on September 19, 2026 and June 1, 2026 respectively.
