Car Cops is free to download; Alien SpaceCraft costs $0.69 up front. Car Cops sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Alien SpaceCraft asks for nothing beyond the download.
Car Cops holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Car Cops has 24K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Alien SpaceCraft's written reviews are positive against 51% of Car Cops's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Alien SpaceCraft ships an update every 37 months, Car Cops fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
