# Flo by Moen™ vs Control4

The clearest difference is rating: Flo by Moen™ at 4.0 against Control4's 3.6. Flo by Moen™ also leads on ratings volume (1.9K vs 70) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). Control4's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Flo by Moen™ holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flo by Moen™ has 1.9K ratings behind it against 70, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 35% of Flo by Moen™'s written reviews are positive against 38% of Control4's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Flo by Moen™ ships an update every 2 months, Control4 fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
