# Offline GPS Navigation vs Waypoint Compass

The clearest difference is rating: Waypoint Compass at 5.0 against Offline GPS Navigation's 4.6. Offline GPS Navigation's advantage is ratings volume (2.9K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Offline GPS Navigation sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Waypoint Compass sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $29.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
