Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: ACV MAX at 4.7 against RouteOneApp's 1.6. ACV MAX also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 20 months) and ratings volume (2.1K vs 20). On price, review sentiment, 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.
ACV MAX holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 1.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ACV MAX has 2.1K ratings behind it against 20, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 15% of RouteOneApp's written reviews are positive against 11% of ACV MAX's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
RouteOneApp ships an update every 20 months, ACV MAX monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
