# My GPS Coordinates ° vs The GPS App

My GPS Coordinates ° and The GPS App both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 88% of The GPS App's written reviews are positive against 40% of My GPS Coordinates °'s. The GPS App also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.2 vs 16.0). My GPS Coordinates °'s advantage is ratings volume (2.1K vs 19).
