Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Accela Mobile holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iReportSource has 17 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 8% of Accela Mobile's written reviews are positive against 83% of iReportSource's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Accela Mobile ships an update every 2 months, iReportSource every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
