Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: HolyStone at 3.5 against 360 Flight's 3.1. 360 Flight's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.0). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
HolyStone holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 3.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 226 and 111 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 31% of 360 Flight's written reviews are positive against 30% of HolyStone's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
360 Flight ships an update fortnightly, HolyStone every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
