# Old Dominion University Mobile vs CampusGroups

The clearest difference is rating: CampusGroups at 4.4 against Old Dominion University Mobile's 1.8. CampusGroups also leads on ratings volume (5.3K vs 11) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). Old Dominion University Mobile's advantage is review sentiment (31% vs 12%) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.4). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

CampusGroups holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 1.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CampusGroups has 5.3K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 31% of Old Dominion University Mobile's written reviews are positive against 12% of CampusGroups's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Old Dominion University Mobile ships an update every 2 months, CampusGroups every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
