ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

HiredChina holds the better App Store score, 2.0 against 1.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: aTrust has 26 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of HiredChina's written reviews are positive against 7% of aTrust's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

HiredChina ships an update every 5 weeks, aTrust every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
