Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Urbvan at 4.5 against Aircab's 2.0. Urbvan also leads on ratings volume (240 vs 4). Aircab's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and review sentiment (40% vs 20%). On price, update cadence, 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.
Urbvan holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Urbvan has 240 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of Urbvan's written reviews are positive against 40% of Aircab's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Urbvan ships an update fortnightly, Aircab every 9 days. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
