# Superlocal vs URBEX Legends

The clearest difference is rating: Superlocal at 4.2 against URBEX Legends's 3.6. Superlocal also leads on ratings volume (3.1K vs 13). URBEX Legends's advantage is review sentiment (40% vs 24%) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 6 days). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Superlocal sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per 7 days and URBEX Legends sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Superlocal holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Superlocal has 3.1K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 24% of Superlocal's written reviews are positive against 40% of URBEX Legends's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Superlocal ships an update every 6 days, URBEX Legends every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
