# Plane Above Me vs Frequency Analyzer

Plane Above Me and Frequency Analyzer both sit at 4.3 stars, but that hides the real split: 62% of Plane Above Me's written reviews are positive against 10% of Frequency Analyzer's.

Frequency Analyzer holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Frequency Analyzer has 182 ratings behind it against 34, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of Plane Above Me's written reviews are positive against 10% of Frequency Analyzer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
