# Infinite Flight Simulator vs Bus Simulator

The clearest difference is ads: Infinite Flight Simulator at none against Bus Simulator's shown. Infinite Flight Simulator also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly) and chart position (#20 vs #119). Bus Simulator's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.3) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Infinite Flight Simulator sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Bus Simulator sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Bus Simulator holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 28K and 23K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 72% of Infinite Flight Simulator's written reviews are positive against 68% of Bus Simulator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Infinite Flight Simulator ships an update every 2 weeks, Bus Simulator monthly. Both last shipped on October 18, 2026.
