Verdict

The call

Browser Auto Refresh and Web Tools both sit at 3.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 61% of Browser Auto Refresh's written reviews are positive against 31% of Web Tools's. Browser Auto Refresh also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs monthly) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.6). Web Tools's advantage is ratings volume (712 vs 88). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Web Tools holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Web Tools has 712 ratings behind it against 88, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of Browser Auto Refresh's written reviews are positive against 31% of Web Tools's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Browser Auto Refresh ships an update every 10 days, Web Tools monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
