ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Kingston Elementary School holds the better App Store score, 3.3 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OnCourse Connect has 197 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Kingston Elementary School's written reviews are positive against 12% of OnCourse Connect's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Kingston Elementary School ships an update every 5 weeks, OnCourse Connect every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
