The call

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

iWaka holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SQLPro Studio has 63 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 72% of SQLPro Studio's written reviews are positive against 0% of iWaka's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

SQLPro Studio ships an update every 4 days, iWaka every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
