ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

iResistors holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Computer Science Converter has 10 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 27% of iResistors's written reviews are positive against 86% of Computer Science Converter's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

iResistors ships an update every 10 months, Computer Science Converter every 12 months. The most recent releases landed on June 30, 2026 and August 24, 2026 respectively.
