ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Aluratek Action Camera holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Camera Connect & Control has 725 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 47% of Camera Connect & Control's written reviews are positive against 25% of Aluratek Action Camera's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
