ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

PB Sharelink Mobile App holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CIMB OCTO MY has 478 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of PB Sharelink Mobile App's written reviews are positive against 67% of CIMB OCTO MY's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

PB Sharelink Mobile App ships an update every 6 months, CIMB OCTO MY every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
