ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Project Construction Estimator holds the better App Store score, 3.8 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Project Construction Estimator has 260 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of ConstruCalc's written reviews are positive against 22% of Project Construction Estimator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency
