ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

NetTools holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iNetTools has 347 ratings behind it against 54, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of iNetTools's written reviews are positive against 67% of NetTools's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

iNetTools ships an update every 4 months, NetTools every 3 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
