Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Feyn at free with in-app purchases against Flashcards maker's subscription. Feyn also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 5 weeks) and review sentiment (80% vs 62%). Flashcards maker's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (667 vs 91). On price, ads and in-app purchases 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. Flashcards maker sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Feyn sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Flashcards maker holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flashcards maker has 667 ratings behind it against 91, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of Flashcards maker's written reviews are positive against 80% of Feyn's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Flashcards maker ships an update every 5 weeks, Feyn every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
