Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Drive at 5.0 against CommuteSmart's 4.2. Drive also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). CommuteSmart's advantage is ratings volume (5 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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.
Drive holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CommuteSmart has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
