Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: 厦门地铁 at free against 广州地铁官方APP's free with in-app purchases. 厦门地铁 also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 13.0). 广州地铁官方APP's advantage is review sentiment (74% vs 50%) and ratings volume (488 vs 6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

厦门地铁 holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 广州地铁官方APP has 488 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of 广州地铁官方APP's written reviews are positive against 50% of 厦门地铁's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

广州地铁官方APP ships an update every 3 weeks, 厦门地铁 every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
