ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Appspree holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Appspree has 660 ratings behind it against 20, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of PortX's written reviews are positive against 58% of Appspree's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

PortX ships an update monthly, Appspree every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
