ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

BLE Scanner 4.0 holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BLE Scanner 4.0 has 615 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Magic Work Cycle's written reviews are positive against 58% of BLE Scanner 4.0's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Magic Work Cycle ships an update every 92 months, BLE Scanner 4.0 every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
