ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

R1WURKS holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: R1WURKS has 14 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 17% of R1WURKS's written reviews are positive against 100% of REDS ESC's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
