Element Ballistics holds the better App Store score, 3.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Element Ballistics has 32 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Olypsys Measure's written reviews are positive against 25% of Element Ballistics's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Olypsys Measure ships an update every 4 weeks, Element Ballistics every 9 days. Both last shipped on September 17, 2026.
