Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Advantage Driving School at 3.7 against 5's 1.4. Advantage Driving School also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). 5's advantage is review sentiment (27% vs 0%) and ratings volume (6.6K vs 3). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Advantage Driving School holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 1.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 5 has 6.6K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 27% of 5's written reviews are positive against 0% of Advantage Driving School's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
5 ships an update monthly, Advantage Driving School every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
