ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Home Locator holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Home Locator has 58 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Brightlink AV's written reviews are positive against 42% of Home Locator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Brightlink AV ships an update monthly, Home Locator every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
