# Maps 3D Neo vs GPS & Maps

The clearest difference is ads: Maps 3D Neo at none against GPS & Maps's shown. Maps 3D Neo also leads on review sentiment (77% vs 63%). GPS & Maps's advantage is ratings volume (2.3K vs 60) and update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Maps 3D Neo sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and GPS & Maps sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.4 for Maps 3D Neo against 4.4 for GPS & Maps. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GPS & Maps has 2.3K ratings behind it against 60, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 77% of Maps 3D Neo's written reviews are positive against 63% of GPS & Maps's.

Maps 3D Neo ships an update every 2 months, GPS & Maps monthly. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
