Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Pi AR at 67% against Arduino Pocket Reference's 12%. Pi AR also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.3) and in-app purchases (none vs 1). Arduino Pocket Reference's advantage is ratings volume (18 vs 1). On price 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. Arduino Pocket Reference sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Pi AR asks for nothing beyond the download.
Pi AR holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Arduino Pocket Reference has 18 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 12% of Arduino Pocket Reference's written reviews are positive against 67% of Pi AR's.
