# Paltopia vs PalMap

The clearest difference is ads: PalMap at none against Paltopia's shown. PalMap also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). Paltopia's advantage is ratings volume (1.4K vs 236). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Paltopia sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and PalMap sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Paltopia against 4.8 for PalMap. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Paltopia has 1.4K ratings behind it against 236, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 69% of Paltopia's written reviews are positive against 62% of PalMap's.

Paltopia ships an update every 3 weeks, PalMap every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
