# Landover vs BTFields

The clearest difference is rating: Landover at 4.2 against BTFields's 3.0. Landover also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months). BTFields's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 6) and review sentiment (79% vs 68%). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Landover sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. BTFields asks for nothing beyond the download.

Landover holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Landover has 86 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of Landover's written reviews are positive against 79% of BTFields's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Landover ships an update every 4 days, BTFields every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
