ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

The Digital Clock holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The Digital Clock has 754 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Nightstand Desk Clock & Widget's written reviews are positive against 80% of The Digital Clock's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
