ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Interpals holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Interpals has 648 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 39% of Interpals's written reviews are positive against 100% of WhoseWhere's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Interpals ships an update every 2 weeks, WhoseWhere fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
