Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Experience Gozo at 100% against Heathrow Express's 30%. Heathrow Express's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.0) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 37 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Heathrow Express holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Heathrow Express has 6.8K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 30% of Heathrow Express's written reviews are positive against 100% of Experience Gozo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Heathrow Express ships an update every 3 weeks, Experience Gozo every 37 months. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
