# NOVA+ vs 发车格

The clearest difference is monetization model: NOVA+ at free with in-app purchases against 发车格's subscription. NOVA+ also leads on review sentiment (95% vs 62%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). 发车格's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. NOVA+ sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and 发车格 sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

NOVA+ ships an update fortnightly, 发车格 weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
