Verdict
Uno buses and AppBike both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 95% of AppBike's written reviews are positive against 22% of Uno buses's. AppBike also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). Uno buses's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 10 months). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
