Analytics for Google Analytics holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0.

Written reviews complicate that: 85% of iKana Nōto's written reviews are positive against 71% of Analytics for Google Analytics's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
