Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: FlightLog App at free with in-app purchases against DG Crews's subscription. FlightLog App also leads on review sentiment (77% vs 43%) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months). DG Crews's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

DG Crews holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FlightLog App has 23 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 43% of DG Crews's written reviews are positive against 77% of FlightLog App's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

DG Crews ships an update every 5 months, FlightLog App every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 2, 2026.
