Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: GPS Data Smart at 4.7 against GPS Plus's 4.3. GPS Data Smart also leads on ratings volume (421 vs 9). GPS Plus's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and review sentiment (93% vs 74%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

GPS Data Smart holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GPS Data Smart has 421 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 93% of GPS Plus's written reviews are positive against 74% of GPS Data Smart's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

GPS Plus ships an update every 3 months, GPS Data Smart every 4 months. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
