Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: MILE at none against FWRD's shown. MILE also leads on review sentiment (84% vs 70%) and chart position (#207 vs unranked). FWRD's advantage is ratings volume (9.1K vs 225) and rating (4.9 vs 4.7). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
FWRD holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FWRD has 9.1K ratings behind it against 225, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 70% of FWRD's written reviews are positive against 84% of MILE's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
FWRD ships an update monthly, MILE fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
