Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: 3D Model Viewer at 4.2 against 3D Model Importer PBR Edition's 1.6. 3D Model Viewer also leads on ratings volume (328 vs 7). 3D Model Importer PBR Edition's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 59%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 3D Model Viewer sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and 3D Model Importer PBR Edition sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $6.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

3D Model Viewer holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 1.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 3D Model Viewer has 328 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of 3D Model Viewer's written reviews are positive against 100% of 3D Model Importer PBR Edition's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
