ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Cave FRVR holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cave FRVR has 238 ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 98% of Springer's written reviews are positive against 53% of Cave FRVR's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Springer ships an update every 3 months, Cave FRVR every 2 months. Both last shipped on October 6, 2026.
