# PIX4Dcatch vs Drone Go2

The clearest difference is rating: PIX4Dcatch at 4.7 against Drone Go2's 2.4. PIX4Dcatch also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks) and ratings volume (267 vs 28). Drone Go2's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 18.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PIX4Dcatch sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $159.00 per month. Drone Go2 asks for nothing beyond the download.

PIX4Dcatch holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PIX4Dcatch has 267 ratings behind it against 28, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of PIX4Dcatch's written reviews are positive against 40% of Drone Go2's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

PIX4Dcatch ships an update every 2 weeks, Drone Go2 every 5 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
