ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

National Post ePaper holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: National Post ePaper has 194 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 53% of National Post ePaper's written reviews are positive against 100% of AgCanada's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

National Post ePaper ships an update every 6 months, AgCanada every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
