# RA Guide vs Stage Passport

The clearest difference is ratings volume: RA Guide at 8.2K against Stage Passport's 2. RA Guide also leads on update cadence (every 11 days vs every 5 weeks) and chart position (#59 vs unranked). Stage Passport's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for RA Guide against 5.0 for Stage Passport. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RA Guide has 8.2K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

RA Guide ships an update every 11 days, Stage Passport every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
