ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Lippemobil holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 1.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2 and 1 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 18% of Lippemobil's written reviews are positive against 25% of ÜSTRA's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Lippemobil ships an update every 2 months, ÜSTRA every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on October 10, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
