Torp Controller holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 2.5.

Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Electric Skateboard's written reviews are positive against 59% of Torp Controller's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Electric Skateboard ships an update every 3 weeks, Torp Controller every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 10, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
