Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: My Singtel app at 4.0 against ScamShield's 3.5. My Singtel app also leads on ratings volume (2.1K vs 2) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks). ScamShield's advantage is review sentiment (45% vs 23%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

My Singtel app holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: My Singtel app has 2.1K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 23% of My Singtel app's written reviews are positive against 45% of ScamShield's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

My Singtel app ships an update every 3 weeks, ScamShield every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and August 16, 2026 respectively.
