ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

The Lauschtour App holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The Lauschtour App has 86 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 96% of The Lauschtour App's written reviews are positive against 100% of Velociped Guide's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

The Lauschtour App ships an update every 3 months, Velociped Guide every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 2, 2026 respectively.
