Verdict

Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
SolarGo holds the better App Store score, 3.3 against 3.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 7 and 7 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 10% of SolarGo's written reviews are positive against 19% of Fronius Solar.web's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
SolarGo ships an update fortnightly, Fronius Solar.web every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
