ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Hashem هاشم holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Maqloba has 265 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of Maqloba's written reviews are positive against 32% of Hashem هاشم's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Maqloba ships an update every 3 weeks, Hashem هاشم every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
