Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Part 107 at Free against Prepware Remote Pilot UAS's $4.99. Part 107 also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.2) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 4 months). Prepware Remote Pilot UAS's advantage is review sentiment (65% vs 26%) and in-app purchases (none vs 10). On device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Part 107 holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Part 107 has 1.1K ratings behind it against 102, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 65% of Prepware Remote Pilot UAS's written reviews are positive against 26% of Part 107's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Prepware Remote Pilot UAS ships an update every 4 months, Part 107 every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
