Vectorworks Remote holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3.

Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Vectorworks Remote's written reviews are positive against 20% of JBL ArrayLink's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Vectorworks Remote ships an update every 3 months, JBL ArrayLink every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
