ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

FreeMcServer holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FreeMcServer has 80 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of FreeMcServer's written reviews are positive against 33% of RCON Console & Server Admin's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

FreeMcServer ships an update monthly, RCON Console & Server Admin every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
