ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Texas Pride holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Texas Pride has 684 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Bobcat® Machine IQ's written reviews are positive against 43% of Texas Pride's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Bobcat® Machine IQ ships an update every 3 months, Texas Pride monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 10, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
