# Right Angle vs Pipe Fitting

The clearest difference is rating: Pipe Fitting at 4.6 against Right Angle's 3.9. Pipe Fitting also leads on ratings volume (116 vs 30) and iOS requirement (16.4 vs 26.0). Right Angle's advantage is review sentiment (73% vs 33%) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Right Angle sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Pipe Fitting sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Pipe Fitting holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.9. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 30 and 116 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of Right Angle's written reviews are positive against 33% of Pipe Fitting's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and October 5, 2026 respectively.
