DSS Mobile 2 holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 1.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DSS Mobile 2 has 42 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of CEIBA II's written reviews are positive against 17% of DSS Mobile 2's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
CEIBA II ships an update every 5 weeks, DSS Mobile 2 every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
