Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Mad Freight at 4.6 against eLog Plus's 3.0. Mad Freight also leads on ratings volume (13 vs 2). eLog Plus's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 7 months) and review sentiment (100% vs 80%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Mad Freight holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mad Freight has 13 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Mad Freight's written reviews are positive against 100% of eLog Plus's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Mad Freight ships an update every 7 months, eLog Plus every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and June 4, 2026 respectively.
