ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Castlight Mobile holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Castlight Mobile has 75K ratings behind it against 1.3K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 48% of Castlight Mobile's written reviews are positive against 58% of Evernorth's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. Both last shipped on September 24, 2026.
