Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Backpacker™ at 5.4K against JordGlobe Geography's 37. JordGlobe Geography's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.5) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Backpacker™ sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.49 per 7 days and JordGlobe Geography sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
JordGlobe Geography holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Backpacker™ has 5.4K ratings behind it against 37, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 70% of Backpacker™'s written reviews are positive against 63% of JordGlobe Geography's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Backpacker™ ships an update every 6 weeks, JordGlobe Geography every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 15, 2026 and November 14, 2026 respectively.
