ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Rural 1st holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Rural 1st has 1.1K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of AgDirect Mobile's written reviews are positive against 38% of Rural 1st's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

AgDirect Mobile ships an update every 3 months, Rural 1st every 7 months. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
