The short version

  • Only AllTrails has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: AllTrails the App Store listing shows AllTrails is a free download with an in-app Pro subscription; the visible listing text does not state the Pro price, so the reader must check in-app purchases for the current rate.; Trimble Mining trimble's mining technology page (trimble.com/construction/mining) publishes no pricing for any of its named mining products; every product and solution link on the page routes through a Contact Us action rather than a figure.
  • They diverge on capability: AllTrails covers Trail discovery, Trimble Mining covers Fleet management.
