Watch Sensor Logger holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sensors Toolbox has 134 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 53% of Sensors Toolbox's written reviews are positive against 50% of Watch Sensor Logger's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Sensors Toolbox ships an update every 7 months, Watch Sensor Logger every 25 months. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
