Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: GPS Data Smart at none against Coordinates's shown. GPS Data Smart also leads on review sentiment (74% vs 64%). Coordinates's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (6.7K vs 406). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Coordinates sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and GPS Data Smart sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Coordinates against 4.7 for GPS Data Smart. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Coordinates has 6.7K ratings behind it against 406, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 64% of Coordinates's written reviews are positive against 74% of GPS Data Smart's.
Coordinates ships an update monthly, GPS Data Smart every 4 months. Both last shipped on October 14, 2026.
