Tommy's Express holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tommy's Express has 5.7K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Bold Type Tickets Scanner's written reviews are positive against 28% of Tommy's Express's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Bold Type Tickets Scanner ships an update every 7 months, Tommy's Express every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
