ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

PicFrame !! holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: chimingClock has 9 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of PicFrame !!'s written reviews are positive against 71% of chimingClock's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

PicFrame !! ships an update every 9 months, chimingClock weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 5, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
