# Link Master vs Flow Free

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Flow Free at 82% against Link Master's 48%. Flow Free also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (5.2K vs 223). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Link Master sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Flow Free sells 12 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Flow Free holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flow Free has 5.2K ratings behind it against 223, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 48% of Link Master's written reviews are positive against 82% of Flow Free's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on September 5, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
