All joking aside, this time you will understand how electronic circuits work. Build any circuit, tap play button, and watch dynamic voltage, current, and charge animations. This gives you insight into circuit operation like no equation does. While simulation is running, adjust circuit parameters with analog knob, and the circuit responds to your actions in real time. You can even generate an arbitrary input signal with your finger! "This app takes design to a whole new level of interactivity" - Design News EveryCircuit is not just an eye candy. Under the hood it packs custom-built simulation engine optimized for interactive mobile use, serious numerical methods, and realistic device models. In short, Ohm's law, Kirchhoff's current and voltage laws, nonlinear semiconductor device equations, and all the good stuff is there. Growing library of components gives you freedom to design any analog or digital circuit from a simple voltage divider to transistor-level masterpiece. Schematic editor features automatic wire routing, and minimalistic user interface. No nonsense, less tapping, more productivity. Simplicity, innovation, and power, combined with mobility, make EveryCircuit a must-have companion for high school science and physics students, electrical engineering college students, breadboard and printed circuit board (PCB) enthusiasts, and ham radio hobbyists.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: PLC AI at 4.5 against EveryCircuit's 3.0. PLC AI also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). EveryCircuit's advantage is review sentiment (51% vs 29%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. EveryCircuit sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and PLC AI sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

PLC AI holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 67 and 84 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of EveryCircuit's written reviews are positive against 29% of PLC AI's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

EveryCircuit ships an update every 3 months, PLC AI every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
