ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

CarGurus Dealer holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CarGurus Dealer has 231 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 10% of Frazer Sidekick's written reviews are positive against 0% of CarGurus Dealer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Frazer Sidekick ships an update every 2 weeks, CarGurus Dealer weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
