ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

NetSpot WiFi Analyzer holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NetSpot WiFi Analyzer has 354 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Telly Big's written reviews are positive against 15% of NetSpot WiFi Analyzer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
