What if the apps updated since your check date?
Then the ratings and dates on these pages have aged — every page prints its check date (2026-11-11) for exactly this reason, and the whole index is re-verified quarterly. The structural comparisons (models, positioning) age slower than the numbers.
Can we request a matchup?
Yes — the matchups here are the ones viewers search for most, but if you want a pairing we haven't done, write to us via the contact page and we'll prioritize by demand.
