Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: geteduroam at none against Three's shown. geteduroam also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and review sentiment (29% vs 18%). Three's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (1.2K vs 7). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Three holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Three has 1.2K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 18% of Three's written reviews are positive against 29% of geteduroam's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Three ships an update every 2 weeks, geteduroam every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
