ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

ArcSphere holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ArcSphere has 105 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 86% of ArcSphere's written reviews are positive against 100% of Santa Browser's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

ArcSphere ships an update every 10 days, Santa Browser every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
