ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Ohio Marijuana holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Strain Guide has 917 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Ohio Marijuana's written reviews are positive against 83% of Strain Guide's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Ohio Marijuana ships an update every 3 months, Strain Guide every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
