# IVPS Tour vs Locals.com

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Locals.com at 53% against IVPS Tour's 4%. Locals.com also leads on rating (4.7 vs 2.2) and ratings volume (42K vs 321). IVPS Tour's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 12) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 13.0). On price, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Locals.com sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. IVPS Tour asks for nothing beyond the download.

Locals.com holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Locals.com has 42K ratings behind it against 321, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 4% of IVPS Tour's written reviews are positive against 53% of Locals.com's.

IVPS Tour ships an update fortnightly, Locals.com every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
