What BHIM's score says

BHIM holds 4.48 stars from 1,920,851 ratings across 100,000,000+ installs. Release Health measures something the store rating does not: whether recent builds are shipping cleanly. On that, the Android build scores 34/100 — qa at risk. A score for iOS is coming. That places it 5th of the 5 payments apps we track.
