# Bus Crowd vs CarLoop

The clearest difference is ratings volume: CarLoop at 26K against Bus Crowd's 810. CarLoop also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bus Crowd sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and CarLoop sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Bus Crowd against 4.7 for CarLoop. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CarLoop has 26K ratings behind it against 810, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 54% of Bus Crowd's written reviews are positive against 49% of CarLoop's.

Bus Crowd ships an update weekly, CarLoop every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 12, 2026 and November 13, 2026 respectively.
