ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Record it! holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Record it! has 458K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of ShowTouch 6's written reviews are positive against 62% of Record it!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

ShowTouch 6 ships an update every 2 months, Record it! weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 12, 2026 respectively.
