Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Pace Calculator at 4.8 against GPS Odometer's 3.3. GPS Odometer's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 4 months vs every 10 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Pace Calculator holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GPS Odometer has 137 ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of GPS Odometer's written reviews are positive against 50% of Pace Calculator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

GPS Odometer ships an update every 4 months, Pace Calculator every 10 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
