# Pilot Reach vs Abeam

The clearest difference is rating: Pilot Reach at 4.6 against Abeam's 4.0. Abeam's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 80%). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pilot Reach sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and Abeam sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Pilot Reach holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 10 and 5 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Pilot Reach's written reviews are positive against 100% of Abeam's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
