ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Lowe's TechConnect holds the better App Store score, 2.9 against 1.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MyToro has 122 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 8% of MyToro's written reviews are positive against 0% of Lowe's TechConnect's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

MyToro ships an update every 6 weeks, Lowe's TechConnect every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
