ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Automatic Cycling Detection holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Automatic Cycling Detection has 39 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 36% of Kiplin's written reviews are positive against 29% of Automatic Cycling Detection's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Kiplin ships an update every 9 days, Automatic Cycling Detection every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
