ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

hi(原REDcity) holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MindBack has 16 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 14% of hi(原REDcity)'s written reviews are positive against 73% of MindBack's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

hi(原REDcity) ships an update every 3 days, MindBack weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
