ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Keap Mobile holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Keap Mobile has 1.8K ratings behind it against 22, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 35% of Textline's written reviews are positive against 28% of Keap Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on June 10, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
