Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: FWRD at 4.9 against MILE's 3.9. FWRD also leads on ratings volume (9K vs 48). MILE's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (83% vs 70%). 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 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FWRD has 9K ratings behind it against 48, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 70% of FWRD's written reviews are positive against 83% 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. Both last shipped on September 22, 2026.
