ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

QuickBlue by QuickPass holds the better App Store score, 2.4 against 2.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Connect Resident has 75 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of QuickBlue by QuickPass's written reviews are positive against 9% of Connect Resident's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

QuickBlue by QuickPass ships an update every 4 months, Connect Resident every 9 months. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
