# Ukrainian Railways vs TocoBus

Ukrainian Railways and TocoBus both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of TocoBus's written reviews are positive against 49% of Ukrainian Railways's. Ukrainian Railways's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (3.9K vs 5). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

TocoBus holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ukrainian Railways has 3.9K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 49% of Ukrainian Railways's written reviews are positive against 100% of TocoBus's.

Ukrainian Railways ships an update every 3 weeks, TocoBus fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
