Kolas holds the better App Store score, 3.6 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Embarc Cannabis Dispensary has 74 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Kolas's written reviews are positive against 37% of Embarc Cannabis Dispensary's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Kolas ships an update every 5 weeks, Embarc Cannabis Dispensary every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 12, 2026 respectively.
