Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Mapway at 4.4 against InfoMaps's 3.0. Mapway also leads on ratings volume (1.1K vs 3). InfoMaps's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 14) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Mapway holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mapway has 1.1K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of InfoMaps's written reviews are positive against 25% of Mapway's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
