Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
EDDMapS Pro holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Trees Count has 8 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of EDDMapS Pro's written reviews are positive against 44% of Trees Count's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
EDDMapS Pro ships an update every 3 weeks, Trees Count every 7 months. The most recent releases landed on September 2, 2026 and August 7, 2026 respectively.
