ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

菜鸟教程 holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 菜鸟教程 has 8 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of C Reference's written reviews are positive against 0% of 菜鸟教程's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

C Reference ships an update every 24 months, 菜鸟教程 every 16 months. The most recent releases landed on August 30, 2026 and August 23, 2026 respectively.
