ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Wind Chill Calculator holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wind Chill Calculator has 534 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 26% of Wind Chill Calculator's written reviews are positive against 67% of Simple Xwind's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
