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.
UTS holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: UTS has 1.7K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 49% of UTS's written reviews are positive against 67% of Mumbai Metro's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
UTS ships an update every 3 weeks, Mumbai Metro every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
