Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Garagistic at 4.9 against Driven's 4.0. Garagistic also leads on ratings volume (217 vs 24). Driven's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 weeks) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Garagistic holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Garagistic has 217 ratings behind it against 24, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of Garagistic's written reviews are positive against 75% of Driven's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Garagistic ships an update every 5 weeks, Driven every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on September 18, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
