ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Wonder for Dash holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wonder for Dash has 476 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Abby Monkey's written reviews are positive against 67% of Wonder for Dash's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
