MultiSens vs Bolt Torque Spec Calc
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
MultiSens
This application allows users to test various machine condition monitoring sensors. It connects to sensors, displays Time Waveform and Vibration Spectrum graphs, and auto-calibrates for data acquisition.
- Test machine condition monitoring sensors
- Connect to sensors
- Plot Time Waveform graph
- Plot Vibration Spectrum (Acceleration, dB, Velocity)
- Auto-calibrate to sensors
- Data acquisition with adjustable sampling rates and sample counts

The app is designed to test drive different Machine Condition Monitoring sensors, connect to them and plot the Time Waveform graph and the Vibration Spectrum in Acceleration, dB and Velocity. The app will auto-calibrate to each sensor and provides data acquisition with different sampling rates and number of samples.
Bolt Torque Spec Calc
Calculates bolt torque specifications for various SAE and metric sizes and grades. Provides results in both ft-lb and N·m, accounting for dry or lubricated conditions. Works offline without ads or subscriptions.
- SAE and Metric bolt specifications
- 28 SAE and 17 Metric sizes
- Dry vs. Lubricated multiplier
- Torque in ft-lb and N·m
- Offline functionality
- Formula and K factor shown

Built for mechanics, millwrights, and equipment installers who need bolt torque on the bench - not a desktop tool. WHAT IT DOES Looks up torque values for standard bolt sizes and grades using the T = K x D x F formula with K = 0.20. SAE grades 2, 5, and 8 across 28 sizes from #6-32 to 1-1/2 inch. Metric classes 4.6, 8.8, 10.9, and 12.9 across 17 sizes from M3 to M36. Dry vs. lubricated multiplier applied to the result. INPUTS - Standard: SAE or Metric - Bolt size (28 SAE or 17 metric sizes available) - Bolt grade or class - Lube condition: Dry or Lubricated RETURNS - Torque in ft-lb - Torque in N·m CALCULATION BASIS - Torque formula: T = 0.20 x D x F - Preload F = 75% of proof strength times tensile stress area - Lubricated multiplier: 0.75 times the dry value WHY THIS APP, NOT THE FREE ONES - Math is shown - formula and assumed K factor visible, not hidden. - 45 size and grade combinations covered in one tap. - Works offline - shop floor, field repair, no Wi-Fi. Always available. - No login. No ads. No telemetry. No subscription. PRICING $1.99. Pay once, own it. Lifetime access on iPhone, iPad, and Mac via Family Sharing. NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR Manufacturer-specified torque values for safety-critical fasteners. Calibrated wrench certificates. Specific K-factor adjustments for anti-seize, plating, or galvanized threads - this app uses K = 0.20 for both dry and lubricated, with the 0.75x multiplier as the only lube adjustment. Verify against the OEM tightening spec for the specific application.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: MultiSens at Free against Bolt Torque Spec Calc's $4.99. MultiSens also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.0) and ratings volume (3 vs 1). Bolt Torque Spec Calc's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
