Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Flying Tank at 4.7 against Ophidia's 4.0. Flying Tank also leads on ratings volume (384 vs 13). Ophidia's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 9) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 16.4). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Flying Tank holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flying Tank has 384 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Ophidia's written reviews are positive against 72% of Flying Tank's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Ophidia ships an update every 3 weeks, Flying Tank every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
