# iPinPoint vs Measure Map

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Measure Map at 79% against iPinPoint's 0%. Measure Map also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 11 months) and ratings volume (5.3K vs 2). iPinPoint's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iPinPoint sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Measure Map sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

iPinPoint holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Measure Map has 5.3K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of iPinPoint's written reviews are positive against 79% of Measure Map's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

iPinPoint ships an update every 11 months, Measure Map every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on September 25, 2026.
