ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Grow Video holds the better App Store score, 3.4 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Schoolrunner 2.0 has 114 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Grow Video's written reviews are positive against 12% of Schoolrunner 2.0's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Grow Video ships an update every 2 months, Schoolrunner 2.0 monthly. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
