# Flat Pack vs Blast Beats

The clearest difference is update cadence: Flat Pack at weekly against Blast Beats's every 27 months. Flat Pack also leads on ratings volume (4.4K vs 5) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). Blast Beats's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and review sentiment (100% vs 85%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Flat Pack sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Blast Beats sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Blast Beats holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flat Pack has 4.4K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two.
