# FieldView Cab vs MagicScout

FieldView Cab and MagicScout both sit at 3.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 50% of FieldView Cab's written reviews are positive against 25% of MagicScout's. FieldView Cab also leads on ratings volume (172 vs 1). MagicScout's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

MagicScout holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FieldView Cab has 172 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of FieldView Cab's written reviews are positive against 25% of MagicScout's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

FieldView Cab ships an update every 6 weeks, MagicScout fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
