ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Hornady Reloading Guide holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hornady Reloading Guide has 17K ratings behind it against 20, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 31% of Hornady Reloading Guide's written reviews are positive against 50% of warm uping's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 28, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
