Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: WhoseWhere at 100% against 1km's 57%. WhoseWhere also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 11). 1km's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 3.0) and ratings volume (593 vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 1km sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. WhoseWhere asks for nothing beyond the download.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

1km holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 1km has 593 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of 1km's written reviews are positive against 100% of WhoseWhere's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

1km ships an update every 3 weeks, WhoseWhere fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
