# BRP GO! vs The Next Trail

The clearest difference is review sentiment: The Next Trail at 88% against BRP GO!'s 15%. The Next Trail also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.2) and update cadence (weekly vs every 4 weeks). BRP GO!'s advantage is ratings volume (3.2K vs 43). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BRP GO! sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per year and The Next Trail sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
