Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: FIXR at 73% against The O2 Venue App's 2%. FIXR also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). The O2 Venue App's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 2.7) and ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases 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.
The O2 Venue App holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The O2 Venue App has 640 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of FIXR's written reviews are positive against 2% of The O2 Venue App's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
FIXR ships an update every 3 weeks, The O2 Venue App every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
