# VenueGPS vs InfluenceVR

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: InfluenceVR at none against VenueGPS's 10. InfluenceVR also leads on ads (none vs shown). VenueGPS's advantage is ratings volume (43 vs 3) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. VenueGPS sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. InfluenceVR asks for nothing beyond the download.

InfluenceVR holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: VenueGPS has 43 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 94% of VenueGPS's written reviews are positive against 100% of InfluenceVR's.

VenueGPS ships an update fortnightly, InfluenceVR every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on July 9, 2026 and September 12, 2026 respectively.
