Pure GPS stores and directs users to waypoints using latitude and longitude coordinates. Pure GPS delivers the necessary functionality to utilize the iPhone's built-in GPS in a simple clean interface. The best thing about Pure GPS is its simplicity. If you plug in the latitude and longitude, Pure GPS will direct you to your destination. It's as easy as that! With Pure GPS there is no need to understand a complicated interface. Pure GPS features maps, metric and customary measurements, speed and heading. Locations can be entered into Pure GPS by entering in coordinates, by marking the user's current location, or by a long press on the map. Now users can share a waypoint with a friend through email! Users can store multiple waypoints and navigate to them. The user can also save their current position as a waypoint to navigate back to later. In addition, Pure GPS can notify you when you get close to your waypoint even while running in the background. Pure GPS does not require users to create an account or share their waypoints in any manner. If you have any comments, questions or concerns, please contact us! You can do so through the app in the Settings page. We'd love to hear from you. Please note that continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pure GPS at none against AeroVision7's 6. Pure GPS also leads on ratings volume (100 vs 8) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 18.0). AeroVision7's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.6 vs 4.3). On price, review sentiment and device support 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. AeroVision7 sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Pure GPS asks for nothing beyond the download.
AeroVision7 holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pure GPS has 100 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of Pure GPS's written reviews are positive against 67% of AeroVision7's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Pure GPS ships an update monthly, AeroVision7 weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
