Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: KRTplus at 4.7 against EZFare's 2.6. KRTplus also leads on update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 3 months). EZFare's advantage is monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
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.
KRTplus holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 85 and 57 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 27% of EZFare's written reviews are positive against 25% of KRTplus's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
EZFare ships an update every 3 months, KRTplus every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on September 29, 2026.
