ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Leaf Identification holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Leaf Identification has 1.4K ratings behind it against 183, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 42% of AutoSilent's written reviews are positive against 34% of Leaf Identification's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

AutoSilent ships an update every 3 weeks, Leaf Identification fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
