# Offline.maps vs RTA Le Pass

The clearest difference is rating: RTA Le Pass at 4.1 against Offline.maps's 2.9. RTA Le Pass also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (4.5K vs 8). Offline.maps's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Offline.maps sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. RTA Le Pass asks for nothing beyond the download.

RTA Le Pass holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 2.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RTA Le Pass has 4.5K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Offline.maps's written reviews are positive against 32% of RTA Le Pass's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Offline.maps ships an update every 3 weeks, RTA Le Pass every 2 months. Both last shipped on September 30, 2026.
