# CHPMap vs GPS Speed Tracker

The clearest difference is review sentiment: GPS Speed Tracker at 100% against CHPMap's 37%. GPS Speed Tracker also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.3) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid). CHPMap's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (75 vs 7). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. CHPMap sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and GPS Speed Tracker sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

GPS Speed Tracker holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CHPMap has 75 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 37% of CHPMap's written reviews are positive against 100% of GPS Speed Tracker's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. Both last shipped on November 10, 2026.
