ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Log Thrower holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Log Thrower has 39K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 14% of Log Thrower's written reviews are positive against 33% of Zipline Crowd's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and September 9, 2026 respectively.
