The Flight Computer Teacher holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Virtual VOR has 46 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 7% of The Flight Computer Teacher's written reviews are positive against 86% of Virtual VOR's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
The Flight Computer Teacher ships an update monthly, Virtual VOR every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
