# 财新 vs 新出行

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 新出行 at none against 财新's 16. 新出行 also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). 财新's advantage is ratings volume (1.2K vs 2) and chart position (#132 vs unranked). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 财新 sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. 新出行 asks for nothing beyond the download.

新出行 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 财新 has 1.2K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

财新 ships an update monthly, 新出行 every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
