The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Komoot offline maps are sold per geographic region rather than per user, so coverage is bought as a Single Region, a Region Bundle or the World Pack; Lose It! photo-based logging (Snap It) is Premium-only and has inconsistent accuracy
  • They diverge on capability: Komoot covers Route planning, Lose It! covers Calorie counting.
