ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

EnTouch Mobile holds the better App Store score, 2.8 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Trane BAS Operator has 45 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 35% of Trane BAS Operator's written reviews are positive against 0% of EnTouch Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Trane BAS Operator ships an update every 3 months, EnTouch Mobile every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and August 18, 2026 respectively.
