# GPS Data Smart vs GPS Coordinates

The clearest difference is ads: GPS Data Smart at none against GPS Coordinates's shown. GPS Data Smart also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (406 vs 57). GPS Coordinates's advantage is update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. GPS Data Smart sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per year and GPS Coordinates sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

GPS Data Smart holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GPS Data Smart has 406 ratings behind it against 57, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 72% of GPS Data Smart's written reviews are positive against 68% of GPS Coordinates's.

GPS Data Smart ships an update every 4 months, GPS Coordinates every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
