ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

ReadyOp Forms holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Firefighter & EMS Calendar has 36 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 42% of Firefighter & EMS Calendar's written reviews are positive against 0% of ReadyOp Forms's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
