# Sync for DJI vs FreeFlight 6

The clearest difference is rating: FreeFlight 6 at 4.7 against Sync for DJI's 4.1. FreeFlight 6 also leads on ratings volume (1.7K vs 299) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.6). Sync for DJI's advantage is review sentiment (70% vs 52%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sync for DJI sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per month and FreeFlight 6 sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

FreeFlight 6 holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FreeFlight 6 has 1.7K ratings behind it against 299, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 70% of Sync for DJI's written reviews are positive against 52% of FreeFlight 6's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Sync for DJI ships an update every 4 weeks, FreeFlight 6 monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
