ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Forum, a Facebook app holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Forum, a Facebook app has 12K ratings behind it against 51, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Airstream Forums's written reviews are positive against 53% of Forum, a Facebook app's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Airstream Forums ships an update every 2 months, Forum, a Facebook app weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 9, 2026 respectively.
