ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

MyUSF Mobile holds the better App Store score, 2.7 against 2.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MyUSF Mobile has 46 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of myFSU Mobile's written reviews are positive against 27% of MyUSF Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

myFSU Mobile ships an update every 6 months, MyUSF Mobile every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
