NCVPS holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.9.

Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Guilford County Schools's written reviews are positive against 25% of NCVPS's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Guilford County Schools ships an update every 8 months, NCVPS monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
