Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Cartogram at 4.4 against beIN's 3.0. Cartogram also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). beIN's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (100 vs 7). On price, monetization model and device support 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. Cartogram sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. beIN asks for nothing beyond the download.
Cartogram holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: beIN has 100 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 10% of beIN's written reviews are positive against 0% of Cartogram's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
beIN ships an update every 3 weeks, Cartogram every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
