Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Zum Driver at 4.4 against Opoli Driver's 2.4. Zum Driver also leads on ratings volume (370 vs 37). Opoli Driver's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks) and iOS requirement (13.0.0 vs 15.0). 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Zum Driver holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Zum Driver has 370 ratings behind it against 37, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 42% of Opoli Driver's written reviews are positive against 38% of Zum Driver's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Opoli Driver ships an update fortnightly, Zum Driver every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
