Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Ting at 4.8 against FlexBeam's 1.0. Ting also leads on ratings volume (109K vs 1). FlexBeam's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 72%) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Ting holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ting has 109K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 72% of Ting's written reviews are positive against 100% of FlexBeam's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Ting ships an update every 2 months, FlexBeam every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
