Ypsilanti District Library holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MDex has 153 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Ypsilanti District Library's written reviews are positive against 100% of MDex's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Ypsilanti District Library ships an update every 4 months, MDex every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
