Verdict
ISO Today and Connect+ both sit at 4.2 stars, but that hides the real split: 74% of ISO Today's written reviews are positive against 28% of Connect+'s. ISO Today also leads on ratings volume (103 vs 20) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). Connect+'s advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
