ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Dive+ World's Diving Community holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dive+ World's Diving Community has 2.6K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of Dive+ World's Diving Community's written reviews are positive against 50% of DiveStory+'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Dive+ World's Diving Community ships an update monthly, DiveStory+ every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
