# A Dungeon Editor vs MapMe

The clearest difference is ads: A Dungeon Editor at none against MapMe's shown. A Dungeon Editor also leads on device support (3 vs 1). MapMe's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs monthly) and review sentiment (58% vs 44%). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. A Dungeon Editor sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and MapMe sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for A Dungeon Editor against 4.5 for MapMe. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MapMe has 26 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 44% of A Dungeon Editor's written reviews are positive against 58% of MapMe's.

A Dungeon Editor ships an update monthly, MapMe every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
