# Easy Compass vs Compass Maps

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Easy Compass at none against Compass Maps's 2. Easy Compass also leads on review sentiment (67% vs 56%) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). Compass Maps's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (667 vs 26). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Compass Maps sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per year. Easy Compass asks for nothing beyond the download.

Compass Maps holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Compass Maps has 667 ratings behind it against 26, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Easy Compass's written reviews are positive against 56% of Compass Maps's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
