ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Eaco holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Fergus Go has 7 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Eaco's written reviews are positive against 61% of Fergus Go's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Eaco ships an update every 2 weeks, Fergus Go every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 6, 2026 respectively.
