Narrative:
On arrival into xna; razorback approach gave us a heading to intercept the ILS 34; and cleared us for the approach. When we were unable to tune the localizer frequency (110.55); and notified approach. The controller told us to use 111.55; which tuned properly. Approach queried if we were able to be established on the localizer. We confirmed that we could; continued the approach and landing uneventfully.after landing; we reviewed notams for xna. One new one popped up; saying the ILS 34 amend 3 was na. We had referenced both amend 3 (current) and the previous version in jeppesen flight deck pro on our ipads. Both show 110.55 as the correct ILS frequency. There was no mention in any notams of a correction to the frequency. My first officer looked at the plate on airnav. It showed 111.55. He also looked at foreflight on his personal ipad; which also showed 111.55. It looks like our jeppesen approaches were incorrect. We later heard an [air carrier] inbound to xna having the same problem. Approach once again issued 111.55 as the correct frequency. The pilot reported that his documentation showed a different frequency.
