# Pickford App vs MLS

Pickford App and MLS both sit at 5.0 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Pickford App's written reviews are positive against 57% of MLS's. Pickford App also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 17.0). MLS's advantage is ratings volume (11K vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

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

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Pickford App against 4.9 for MLS. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MLS has 11K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 100% of Pickford App's written reviews are positive against 57% of MLS's.

Pickford App ships an update every 4 months, MLS every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on June 5, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
