ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

i中南林 holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 学习通 has 254 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 48% of 学习通's written reviews are positive against 9% of i中南林's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

学习通 ships an update every 3 weeks, i中南林 monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
