This application calculate values of given number which are described below: * Integer factorization * Euler's totient function * Primitive root (if exist) * x, y where x^2 + y^2 = p if p is 4n+1 * x, y where x^2 + 3y^2 = p if p is 3n+1 * x, y where x^2 + 2y^2 = p if p is 8n+1 or 8n+3 * x, y where x^2 - 2y^2 = p if p is 8n+1 or 8n+7 This application uses Fermat algorithm, Pollard's rho algorithm and Lenstra's ECM for factorization, Miller–Rabin algorithm for primality test
Prime Number Checker
Read full descriptionHide full description
The Prime Number Checker is a fast, beautiful and handy app to determine if a certain number is a prime number. A prime number is a natural number greater than 1 that has no positive divisors other than 1 and itself. Prime numbers are used in many fields, including mathematics and cryptography. In cryptography, they are especially useful since big prime numbers are extremely hard to factorize. Thus, they are the core of many cryptographic algorithms.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Prime Number Checker at every 5 weeks against Prime Checker's every 17 months. Prime Number Checker also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 12.4). Prime Checker's advantage is device support (4 vs 2). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
