ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

USFS & BLM Campgrounds holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: USFS & BLM Campgrounds has 4.3K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of USFS & BLM Campgrounds's written reviews are positive against 100% of FL Parks's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

USFS & BLM Campgrounds ships an update every 3 weeks, FL Parks every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
