Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Golf Genius holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Golf Genius has 76K ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 26% of Golf Genius's written reviews are positive against 50% of AccuRange's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Golf Genius ships an update every 3 weeks, AccuRange monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
