Resolutioner by Sun Apps is a simple utility app for calculating and scaling resolutions and aspect ratios. You can input an aspect ratio and calculate a resolution based on it, or you can input a resolution and scale it up or down. For quick reference, you can save an aspect ratio to your Saved Presets, and load it back into the calculator with just one tap. NO ADS OR PREMIUM FEATURES The price you see is the price you pay. There are no ads, premium features, subscriptions, or anything else. And since we don’t collect any data, there’s no data for us to sell! If you really love the app, you can donate via the Tip Jar option (that’s the in-app purchases the App Store shows). INTERFACE You can choose from two great interface options, Unified or Split. Unified puts the calculator and Saved Presets on one page, while Split puts them side-by-side or into tabs, depending on screen/window size. You can also turn the theme color on or off, as well as toggle between a monospaced and a standard font design. DESIGNED FOR iOS AND iPadOS Resolutioner has been designed with Liquid Glass in mind, and works great across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Vision Pro! - Full support for Dark, Tinted, and Clear Home Screen modes - Full multitasking support: multi-window support, keyboard shortcuts, full cursor support, Slide Over + Split View, and more - Choose from five app icon designs - Fully updated for Liquid Glass - iCloud sync support - Dynamic text support

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Scriptable at Free against Resolutioner's $0.99. Scriptable also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 63 months) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). Resolutioner's advantage is review sentiment (79% vs 69%). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and chart position there is nothing between them.

Scriptable is free to download; Resolutioner costs $0.99 up front. Scriptable sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Resolutioner sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Scriptable holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 3.8K and 868 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Scriptable's written reviews are positive against 79% of Resolutioner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Scriptable ships an update every 4 days, Resolutioner every 63 months. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
