ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Salai Shop holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Salai Shop has 58 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Salai Shop's written reviews are positive against 75% of Studio by TCS's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Salai Shop ships an update every 7 months, Studio by TCS every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on July 7, 2026 and September 2, 2026 respectively.
