Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: du at 4.5 against Excellence Driving's 3.7. du also leads on ratings volume (15K vs 6). Excellence Driving's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

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

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

du holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: du has 15K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 14% of du's written reviews are positive against 20% of Excellence Driving's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

du ships an update fortnightly, Excellence Driving every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
