ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Premier Pools AR holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Speech Bubbles Photo Editor has 209 ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of Speech Bubbles Photo Editor's written reviews are positive against 50% of Premier Pools AR's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Speech Bubbles Photo Editor ships an update every 2 months, Premier Pools AR monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
