# RAID vs Star Trek Fleet Command

The clearest difference is ads: Star Trek Fleet Command at none against RAID's shown. Star Trek Fleet Command also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). RAID's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and review sentiment (44% vs 28%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and chart position there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RAID sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Star Trek Fleet Command sells 12 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

RAID holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RAID has 528K ratings behind it against 68K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 44% of RAID's written reviews are positive against 28% of Star Trek Fleet Command's.

RAID ships an update fortnightly, Star Trek Fleet Command every 5 days. Both last shipped on September 24, 2026.
