ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Clearwave Wi holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Clearwave Wi has 197 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of Dirtbuster's written reviews are positive against 5% of Clearwave Wi's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Dirtbuster ships an update every 4 months, Clearwave Wi every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
