ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

DiskOnPhone Wireless Disk holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mastowatch has 16 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of DiskOnPhone Wireless Disk's written reviews are positive against 80% of Mastowatch's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. The most recent releases landed on August 27, 2026 and June 1, 2026 respectively.
