# Wiki GO vs ExploreMap for Wikipedia

The clearest difference is review sentiment: ExploreMap for Wikipedia at 100% against Wiki GO's 0%. ExploreMap for Wikipedia also leads on update cadence (every 11 days vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (12 vs 1). Wiki GO's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.4) and ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Wiki GO sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and ExploreMap for Wikipedia sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Wiki GO holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ExploreMap for Wikipedia has 12 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Wiki GO's written reviews are positive against 100% of ExploreMap for Wikipedia's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Wiki GO ships an update every 5 months, ExploreMap for Wikipedia every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on August 15, 2026 and September 1, 2026 respectively.
