TrailIntel is free to download; Guru Maps Pro costs $89.99 up front. TrailIntel sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $49.99 per year. Guru Maps Pro asks for nothing beyond the download.
Guru Maps Pro holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Guru Maps Pro has 995 ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of Guru Maps Pro's written reviews are positive against 89% of TrailIntel's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Guru Maps Pro ships an update every 10 days, TrailIntel every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 18, 2026 respectively.
