Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Oslo Pass at 2.7 against Visit Norway's 1.5. Oslo Pass also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (21 vs 2). Visit Norway's advantage is review sentiment (76% vs 50%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Oslo Pass holds the better App Store score, 2.7 against 1.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Oslo Pass has 21 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 76% of Visit Norway's written reviews are positive against 50% of Oslo Pass's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and September 16, 2026 respectively.
