ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Lanthier holds the better App Store score, 3.8 against 3.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 5 and 5 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of Lanthier's written reviews are positive against 63% of Hypercare's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Lanthier ships an update every 2 months, Hypercare every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
