# Car vs Switch panel

The clearest difference is update cadence: Switch panel at every 2 months against Car's every 7 months. Car's advantage is ratings volume (125 vs 25). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 1.6 for Car against 1.6 for Switch panel. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Car has 125 ratings behind it against 25, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 9% of Car's written reviews are positive against 15% of Switch panel's.

Car ships an update every 7 months, Switch panel every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 8, 2026 and September 2, 2026 respectively.
