Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Electrical Calculator lite at 4.6 against CableApp's 3.0. Electrical Calculator lite also leads on ratings volume (574 vs 2). CableApp's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and review sentiment (61% vs 41%). On price, update cadence, 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. Electrical Calculator lite sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. CableApp asks for nothing beyond the download.
Electrical Calculator lite holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Electrical Calculator lite has 574 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 41% of Electrical Calculator lite's written reviews are positive against 61% of CableApp's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Electrical Calculator lite ships an update every 5 weeks, CableApp every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
