ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

COPIC Collection holds the better App Store score, 3.3 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: COPIC Collection has 130 ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of COPIC Collection's written reviews are positive against 45% of HandModel's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

COPIC Collection ships an update every 4 months, HandModel every 9 months. The most recent releases landed on September 12, 2026 and July 28, 2026 respectively.
