Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Vaetrix Remote Gauge at 4.0 against PosiTector's 3.6. Vaetrix Remote Gauge also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). PosiTector's advantage is review sentiment (25% vs 0%) and ratings volume (10 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Vaetrix Remote Gauge holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PosiTector has 10 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of PosiTector's written reviews are positive against 0% of Vaetrix Remote Gauge's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
