CarPos holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ReachFar has 8 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of CarPos's written reviews are positive against 53% of ReachFar's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
CarPos ships an update monthly, ReachFar every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 14, 2026 and July 21, 2026 respectively.
