# Moovit vs AT Mobile

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: AT Mobile at none against Moovit's 10. AT Mobile also leads on ads (none vs shown). Moovit's advantage is review sentiment (56% vs 30%) and ratings volume (61K vs 576). On price, rating, update cadence and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Moovit sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. AT Mobile asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Moovit against 4.7 for AT Mobile. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Moovit has 61K ratings behind it against 576, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 56% of Moovit's written reviews are positive against 30% of AT Mobile's.

Moovit ships an update every 9 days, AT Mobile every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
