# Japan Airlines vs TravelMemoryMap

The clearest difference is review sentiment: TravelMemoryMap at 73% against Japan Airlines's 15%. TravelMemoryMap also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 weeks). Japan Airlines's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and ratings volume (21K vs 1). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. TravelMemoryMap sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Japan Airlines asks for nothing beyond the download.

TravelMemoryMap holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Japan Airlines has 21K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 15% of Japan Airlines's written reviews are positive against 73% of TravelMemoryMap's.

Japan Airlines ships an update every 3 weeks, TravelMemoryMap every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
