# MapGenie vs OSRS Wiki

The clearest difference is ads: OSRS Wiki at none against MapGenie's shown. OSRS Wiki also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 26 months) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). MapGenie's advantage is ratings volume (2.6K vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.5). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MapGenie sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and OSRS Wiki sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

OSRS Wiki holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MapGenie has 2.6K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

MapGenie ships an update every 26 months, OSRS Wiki every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 12, 2026 and November 15, 2026 respectively.
