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.
OMBAR holds the better App Store score, 2.0 against 1.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OMBAR has 105 ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 27% of DashGo's written reviews are positive against 25% of OMBAR's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
DashGo ships an update every 5 months, OMBAR every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on July 7, 2026 and August 27, 2026 respectively.
