ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Old Mutual holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Absa Uganda has 9 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Old Mutual's written reviews are positive against 25% of Absa Uganda's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Old Mutual ships an update monthly, Absa Uganda every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
