GlideRatio vs ExitEval
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
GlideRatio
This app helps paragliders and hang gliders calculate the minimum glide ratio needed for safe takeoffs and landings. It uses your phone's camera and motion sensors to provide immediate calculations with a simple, intuitive interface.
- Detects minimal glide ratio for safe flights
- Uses rear camera and motion sensors
- Two detection modes: landing zone and takeoff site
- Zoom feature for accurate aiming
- Minimalistic and intuitive UI

First, many thanks to my Bulgarian friends: Andrey Manolov and Emil Gyorev. For the great idea to create this application. If it was not for your help and encouragement, this project would not have been successful. This application uses rear camera and motion sensors of your phone to detect minimal glide ratio required to safely run (fly) lines in your Hike&Fly missions. Two modes of detection: from landing zone and from takeoff site. Use zoom feature to point your camera to destination accurate. Minimalistic UI (no stupid buttons, controls, etc): Just point your camera to landing (or to takeoff) zone, boom - you can see calculated glide ratio immediately.
ExitEval
This app helps wingsuit BASE jumpers analyze and compare exit profiles using laser or manual data. It features a global database of exits with photos and videos, a community logbook, and offline support for critical evaluations.
- Global exit database with photos and videos
- Compare exit profiles with laser or manual data

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: GlideRatio at none against ExitEval's 2. GlideRatio also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 75%) and iOS requirement (13.2 vs 15.1). ExitEval's advantage is ratings volume (11 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
