Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: My CenturyLink at 4.4 against WasteConnect+'s 2.4. My CenturyLink also leads on ratings volume (138K vs 50). WasteConnect+'s advantage is chart position (#203 vs unranked) and review sentiment (21% vs 9%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

My CenturyLink holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: My CenturyLink has 138K ratings behind it against 50, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 9% of My CenturyLink's written reviews are positive against 21% of WasteConnect+'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

My CenturyLink ships an update every 3 weeks, WasteConnect+ every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
