ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

ES12 holds the better App Store score, 3.3 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MySwingCaddie has 204 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 10% of ES12's written reviews are positive against 20% of MySwingCaddie's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. Both last shipped on November 2, 2026.
