ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Traccar Manager holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Traccar Manager has 180 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 45% of Traccar Manager's written reviews are positive against 67% of GpsGate Tracker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Traccar Manager ships an update every 3 weeks, GpsGate Tracker monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and June 10, 2026 respectively.
