Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: eFly Mobility at 4.7 against CarUp's 3.7. eFly Mobility also leads on ratings volume (1.4K vs 7). CarUp's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 69%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
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.
eFly Mobility holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: eFly Mobility has 1.4K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of eFly Mobility's written reviews are positive against 100% of CarUp's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
eFly Mobility ships an update every 2 weeks, CarUp fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and July 7, 2026 respectively.
