Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: PMLP App at 4.3 against My Astound's 1.6. PMLP App also leads on update cadence (every 8 months vs every 35 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). My Astound's advantage is ratings volume (118 vs 4). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

PMLP App holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 1.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: My Astound has 118 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of PMLP App's written reviews are positive against 8% of My Astound's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

PMLP App ships an update every 8 months, My Astound every 35 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
