# GPS & Maps Navigator vs MapSwitch

The clearest difference is rating: GPS & Maps Navigator at 4.5 against MapSwitch's 4.0. GPS & Maps Navigator also leads on ratings volume (86 vs 1). MapSwitch's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 weeks) and review sentiment (40% vs 32%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. GPS & Maps Navigator sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and MapSwitch sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

GPS & Maps Navigator holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GPS & Maps Navigator has 86 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 32% of GPS & Maps Navigator's written reviews are positive against 40% of MapSwitch's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

GPS & Maps Navigator ships an update every 3 weeks, MapSwitch every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and September 13, 2026 respectively.
