RAD Development holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RAD Development has 26 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 70% of RAD Development's written reviews are positive against 100% of VECTRONIX SHOOTING SOLUTIONS's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
