# Miles vs Snel

The clearest difference is rating: Miles at 4.8 against Snel's 3.8. Miles also leads on review sentiment (89% vs 56%) and ratings volume (159 vs 4). Snel's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 7) and update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly). On price and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Miles sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Snel asks for nothing beyond the download.

Miles holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Miles has 159 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 89% of Miles's written reviews are positive against 56% of Snel's.

Miles ships an update fortnightly, Snel every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
