# ナビレコ vs Talk Compass

The clearest difference is rating: ナビレコ at 5.0 against Talk Compass's 4.5. ナビレコ also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 18 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). Talk Compass's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 33%) and ratings volume (11 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

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

ナビレコ holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Talk Compass has 11 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of ナビレコ's written reviews are positive against 50% of Talk Compass's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

ナビレコ ships an update every 2 months, Talk Compass every 18 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
