Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
URBTIX holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 1.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 1 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 11% of URBTIX's written reviews are positive against 25% of 粤通行's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
URBTIX ships an update fortnightly, 粤通行 every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
