JavaScript Anywhere JSAnywhere holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: JavaScript Anywhere JSAnywhere has 459 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of JavaScript Anywhere JSAnywhere's written reviews are positive against 73% of Viewer for CloudApp'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 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and July 7, 2026 respectively.
