Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Flannels at 85% against Wickes TradePro's 13%. Flannels also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (420 vs 1). Wickes TradePro's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Wickes TradePro holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flannels has 420 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 13% of Wickes TradePro's written reviews are positive against 85% of Flannels's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Wickes TradePro ships an update every 6 weeks, Flannels every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on September 25, 2026.
