Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Resistor Tools at 5.0 against Resistor's 4.0. Resistor Tools also leads on ratings volume (10 vs 1) and review sentiment (75% vs 67%). Resistor's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 12.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Resistor Tools sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Resistor asks for nothing beyond the download.
Resistor Tools holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Resistor Tools has 10 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 75% of Resistor Tools's written reviews are positive against 67% of Resistor's.
