ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Shrewd! holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Shrewd! has 23 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Shrewd!'s written reviews are positive against 97% of Galaxy Player's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Shrewd! ships an update every 8 months, Galaxy Player every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
