# MapSkins GPS vs Game Maps

The clearest difference is review sentiment: MapSkins GPS at 77% against Game Maps's 0%. MapSkins GPS also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (42 vs 5). Game Maps's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.4). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MapSkins GPS sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and Game Maps sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Game Maps holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MapSkins GPS has 42 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of MapSkins GPS's written reviews are positive against 0% of Game Maps's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

MapSkins GPS ships an update every 2 weeks, Game Maps weekly. Both last shipped on October 25, 2026.
