ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

InstaSub holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: InstaSub has 256 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of InstaSub's written reviews are positive against 50% of Enrollsy's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

InstaSub ships an update every 6 weeks, Enrollsy every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
