# MTB Project vs Track Merger

The clearest difference is price: MTB Project at Free against Track Merger's $3.99. MTB Project also leads on rating (4.6 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (4.4K vs 9). Track Merger's advantage is chart position (#97 vs unranked) and review sentiment (44% vs 32%). On update cadence, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

MTB Project is free to download; Track Merger costs $3.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

MTB Project holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MTB Project has 4.4K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 32% of MTB Project's written reviews are positive against 44% of Track Merger's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

MTB Project ships an update every 5 weeks, Track Merger monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
