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.
Place Pin holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 9 and 5 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Pin Maps +'s written reviews are positive against 50% of Place Pin's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
