ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

QQ邮箱 holds the better App Store score, 3.6 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: QQ邮箱 has 728 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of 189邮箱's written reviews are positive against 51% of QQ邮箱's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

189邮箱 ships an update every 2 months, QQ邮箱 every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
