ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

AuditBricks holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: AuditBricks has 164 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 63% of AuditBricks's written reviews are positive against 79% of LightPDF Scanner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

AuditBricks ships an update every 3 months, LightPDF Scanner every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
