ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

New York Post for iPhone holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: New York Post for iPhone has 22K ratings behind it against 1.8K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 26% of New York Post for iPhone's written reviews are positive against 36% of Breitbart's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

New York Post for iPhone ships an update every 2 weeks, Breitbart monthly. Both last shipped on September 24, 2026.
