The call

The clearest difference is rating: HollyView at 2.4 against JINBEI's 1.0. HollyView also leads on ratings volume (73 vs 1). JINBEI's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs monthly). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

HollyView holds the better App Store score, 2.4 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HollyView has 73 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 22% of JINBEI's written reviews are positive against 15% of HollyView's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

JINBEI ships an update every 11 days, HollyView monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
