Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Central Hudson Mobile holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 2.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Central Hudson Mobile has 711 ratings behind it against 129, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 11% of Central Hudson Mobile's written reviews are positive against 28% of RoutingBox Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Central Hudson Mobile ships an update every 2 months, RoutingBox Mobile every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
