Table8welds
Read full descriptionHide full description
Useful for the preliminary sizing of fillet welds, Table8welds is an engineering calculator app that computes the initial fillet weld size for typical welding patterns used in steel construction. After providing the input parameters (design method, weld strength, weld pattern, required load and weld dimensions), coefficients C and C1 are determined based on industry standard reference tables. The initial fillet weld size, Dmin, is then calculated and expressed as the minimum number of sixteenths of an inch required. The calculations performed by the Table8welds app are based on the Instantaneous Center of Rotation Method. For practicality, the weld dimension, L, is limited to a minimum value 1 inch and a maximum value of 100 inches. The required force, Pu or Pa, is limited to a range between 1 and +9,999 kips. The tables used by the app to determine the Coefficient, C, for Eccentrically Loaded Weld Groups are available for reference and manual verification by the user.

BitTime is a binary clock app for your iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. It shows the time in a variety of formats, and features widgets and watch complications. Formats: * Binary-Coded Decimal - Classic dot-matrix binary clock, customizable to your liking * Numerical binary - hour:minute:second view * Unix Timestamp - For those who like numbers and dislike being able to read the time * ISO 8601 - This is getting ridiculous Customize your view: * Symbol styles: circles, rectangles, squares, or plain 1s and 0s * Regular macOS, or colored themes with retro glow effects * 12-hour or 24-hour display * Seconds or minute views * Local time or UTC * Color themes including custom colors Widgets are available on your iOS and iPadOS devices; watch complications are available in all shapes and sizes on your Apple Watch. The app also integrates with Spotlight on iOS and iPadOS, allowing you to quickly see the current time in binary formats. BitTime respects your privacy, and has no network access or telemetry. (Except App Store analytics that Apple collects)

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Table8welds at none against BitTime's 5. BitTime's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 21 months) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
