Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: TomTom GO Expert at 4.2 against CoPilot GPS Navigation's 3.5. TomTom GO Expert also leads on update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads 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. CoPilot GPS Navigation sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per month and TomTom GO Expert sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
TomTom GO Expert holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2K and 2.5K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 35% of CoPilot GPS Navigation's written reviews are positive against 30% of TomTom GO Expert's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
CoPilot GPS Navigation ships an update every 4 months, TomTom GO Expert every 5 weeks. Both last shipped on September 24, 2026.
