Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Electronics Tools & Calc Pro at 5.0 against Arduino Programming Pro's 4.6. Arduino Programming Pro's advantage is review sentiment (71% vs 50%) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 5 months). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Electronics Tools & Calc Pro costs $4.99 and Arduino Programming Pro $4.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Electronics Tools & Calc Pro holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 5 and 5 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Electronics Tools & Calc Pro's written reviews are positive against 71% of Arduino Programming Pro's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Electronics Tools & Calc Pro ships an update every 5 months, Arduino Programming Pro every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
