Youngstown State University holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0.

Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Youngstown State University's written reviews are positive against 92% of MentorPRO's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Youngstown State University ships an update monthly, MentorPRO every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 12, 2026 respectively.
