# RouteThis Helps vs IconCMO

The clearest difference is rating: RouteThis Helps at 2.0 against IconCMO's 1.0. RouteThis Helps also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 21 months) and ratings volume (200 vs 1). IconCMO's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 18%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

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

RouteThis Helps holds the better App Store score, 2.0 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RouteThis Helps has 200 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 18% of RouteThis Helps's written reviews are positive against 50% of IconCMO's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

RouteThis Helps ships an update fortnightly, IconCMO every 21 months. Both last shipped on November 2, 2026.
