Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Directo at every 9 days against Taxi Sonrisas's every 4 months. Directo also leads on review sentiment (38% vs 14%) and ratings volume (13 vs 2). Taxi Sonrisas's advantage is rating (3.0 vs 2.7) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support 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.
Taxi Sonrisas holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Directo has 13 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 38% of Directo's written reviews are positive against 14% of Taxi Sonrisas's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Directo ships an update every 9 days, Taxi Sonrisas every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
