ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Auctria Admin holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Givebutter has 122 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 47% of Givebutter's written reviews are positive against 33% of Auctria Admin's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Givebutter ships an update every 8 days, Auctria Admin every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
