ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Star Catcher holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Earth Editor has 919 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Star Catcher's written reviews are positive against 79% of Earth Editor's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Star Catcher ships an update every 7 months, Earth Editor every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on August 26, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
