ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

RANRES holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Nut has 878 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 52% of Nut's written reviews are positive against 33% of RANRES's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Nut ships an update every 3 weeks, RANRES every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
