ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Airplane Games Plane Simulator holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Airplane Games Plane Simulator has 135 ratings behind it against 19, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 29% of VR Flight Simulator Pro's written reviews are positive against 19% of Airplane Games Plane Simulator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

VR Flight Simulator Pro ships an update every 3 months, Airplane Games Plane Simulator every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
