# Growbit vs MapIt

The clearest difference is rating: MapIt at 4.5 against Growbit's 3.4. Growbit's advantage is review sentiment (14% vs 0%) and chart position (#196 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Growbit sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and MapIt sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

MapIt holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Growbit has 58 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 14% of Growbit's written reviews are positive against 0% of MapIt's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Growbit ships an update monthly, MapIt every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 8, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
