ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

The Crown App holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Quantumult X has 1.7K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of The Crown App's written reviews are positive against 50% of Quantumult X'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 October 24, 2026 and October 26, 2026 respectively.
