Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Campbeltown Courier at 100% against tucson.com's 39%. Campbeltown Courier also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (11.2 vs 17.6). tucson.com's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 21 months) and ratings volume (4.5K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. tucson.com sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $4.99 per month and Campbeltown Courier sells 40 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Campbeltown Courier holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: tucson.com has 4.5K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

tucson.com ships an update every 6 weeks, Campbeltown Courier every 21 months. Both last shipped on October 29, 2026.
