ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Pastor holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: UnTrap for YouTube has 520 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 31% of Pastor's written reviews are positive against 62% of UnTrap for YouTube's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Pastor ships an update every 8 months, UnTrap for YouTube fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
