ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Mushroom Identifier holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 1.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mushroom Identifier has 38 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 97% of Mushroom Identification ++'s written reviews are positive against 50% of Mushroom Identifier's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
