Only where things are in relation to each other. β Type, and the pins pile up - Suggestions appear as you type a place, station, or landmark - Tap a suggestion and the pin drops instantly - Pins are numbered and color-coded, so you never lose track β See the whole picture - Every time you add a pin, the map zooms to fit them all - One button returns you to the overview whenever you want - Connect the pins with a line to see their order and total distance β Address and phone for businesses - Tap a pin or chip to open a detail card - Copy the address, or tap the phone number to call β Where you are, and which way you're facing - Your location shows as a blue dot - A blue cone on the map shows the direction you're facing - The compass reads out both bearing and degrees, like "NE 38Β°" - Distances from you to each pin are listed at a glance β Simple and private - No account, no ads - Pins are stored on your device only.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MapQ at none against MAP COLLECTION diground's 7. MapQ also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). MAP COLLECTION diground's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
