# Metro Bike Share vs eXactnav

The clearest difference is review sentiment: eXactnav at 100% against Metro Bike Share's 23%. eXactnav also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and device support (3 vs 1). Metro Bike Share's advantage is rating (4.3 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (512 vs 3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Metro Bike Share holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Metro Bike Share has 512 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 23% of Metro Bike Share's written reviews are positive against 100% of eXactnav's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Metro Bike Share ships an update every 6 weeks, eXactnav every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
