ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Take Your Line holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Take Your Line has 15K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Barbell Run's written reviews are positive against 62% of Take Your Line's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
