The call

The clearest difference is rating: InnerFlo at 4.3 against Brainwave Player's 2.0. InnerFlo also leads on ratings volume (561 vs 1).

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

InnerFlo holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: InnerFlo has 561 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Brainwave Player's written reviews are positive against 15% of InnerFlo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Brainwave Player ships an update every 3 weeks, InnerFlo every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
