# Galaxy Map vs Intergalactic Bible

The clearest difference is ads: Intergalactic Bible at none against Galaxy Map's shown. Intergalactic Bible also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Galaxy Map's advantage is ratings volume (609 vs 5) and review sentiment (80% vs 67%). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Galaxy Map sells 13 one-off in-app purchases and Intergalactic Bible sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Intergalactic Bible holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Galaxy Map has 609 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Galaxy Map's written reviews are positive against 67% of Intergalactic Bible's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Galaxy Map ships an update monthly, Intergalactic Bible every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and September 26, 2026 respectively.
