# GPS Utility vs COOts

The clearest difference is review sentiment: COOts at 100% against GPS Utility's 50%. COOts also leads on iOS requirement (6.1 vs 12.0). GPS Utility's advantage is rating (3.7 vs 3.5). On price, ratings volume, ads 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.

GPS Utility holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 3.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 3 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of GPS Utility's written reviews are positive against 100% of COOts's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
