Comparison
CraftLauncher or MineLaunched?
MineLaunched has built Minecraft launchers since 2020 and signs its installers. CraftLauncher bets on a free plan and community features. Here is an honest comparison.
MineLaunched stands out with EV code signing, its track record and a €3.99/month entry plan for 2 launchers; CraftLauncher with a free plan, Modrinth and CurseForge import, and community features built into the launcher (friends, messages, voice calls).

To be honest
When MineLaunched may fit better
Code signing today
Its signed installers avoid Windows’ SmartScreen warning; we don’t offer that yet.
Most launchers for the lowest price
2 launchers at €3.99/month is hard to beat for several small servers.
A verifiable track record
Since 2020 and over 100 Trustpilot reviews: hindsight we don’t have yet.
