ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

SurveyMonkey Anywhere holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SurveyMonkey Anywhere has 85 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 32% of FHinspector's written reviews are positive against 9% of SurveyMonkey Anywhere's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

FHinspector ships an update every 5 months, SurveyMonkey Anywhere every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
