Verdict

The call

MyReaderNumber's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 23 months) and ratings volume (134 vs 1). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Visual Acuity Test on App! holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MyReaderNumber has 134 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 28% of Visual Acuity Test on App!'s written reviews are positive against 50% of MyReaderNumber's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Visual Acuity Test on App! ships an update every 23 months, MyReaderNumber every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 13, 2026 and September 18, 2026 respectively.
