IndiGO MobilePay holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PRT Ready2Ride has 102 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 12% of PRT Ready2Ride's written reviews are positive against 0% of IndiGO MobilePay's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
PRT Ready2Ride ships an update every 9 months, IndiGO MobilePay fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
