Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: ElectroSim at Free against Motor Control Circuits's $5.99. ElectroSim also leads on rating (4.4 vs 1.0) and ratings volume (92 vs 1). Motor Control Circuits's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and iOS requirement (13.3 vs 15.0). On review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
