Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Don't Trip! at none against Gopogo's shown. Don't Trip! also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 10 months) and ratings volume (333 vs 34). Gopogo's advantage is rating (4.1 vs 3.8). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. Gopogo sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Don't Trip! sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Gopogo holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Don't Trip! has 333 ratings behind it against 34, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 43% of Gopogo's written reviews are positive against 44% of Don't Trip!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Gopogo ships an update every 10 months, Don't Trip! every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
