ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

EDDMapS Pro holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Atom has 44 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 82% of Atom's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

EDDMapS Pro ships an update every 3 weeks, Atom every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on September 2, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
