ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Minimalism Challenge holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Clutterfree has 97 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 42% of Clutterfree's written reviews are positive against 0% of Minimalism Challenge's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
