ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for A against 4.6 for nPTT. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: nPTT has 111 ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 38% of A's written reviews are positive against 41% of nPTT's.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

A ships an update every 2 weeks, nPTT every 9 days. Both last shipped on September 22, 2026.
