ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

myTOMRA holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: myTOMRA has 48 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 43% of myTOMRA's written reviews are positive against 100% of Split's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

myTOMRA ships an update every 3 months, Split every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and June 3, 2026 respectively.
