Valerus holds the better App Store score, 3.4 against 1.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Exacq Mobile 3 has 296 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 7% of Exacq Mobile 3's written reviews are positive against 0% of Valerus's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Exacq Mobile 3 ships an update every 2 months, Valerus every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
