Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
MapMx holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Find My Device has 1.2K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 48% of Find My Device's written reviews are positive against 31% of MapMx's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Find My Device ships an update every 8 months, MapMx every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 17, 2026 respectively.
