ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

LockedIn Admin holds the better App Store score, 2.3 against 1.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Orah Student App has 239 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 13% of Orah Student App's written reviews are positive against 0% of LockedIn Admin's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Orah Student App ships an update every 6 weeks, LockedIn Admin every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
