Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Moen Flo holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Moen Flo has 27K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of SimpleSENCE's written reviews are positive against 16% of Moen Flo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
SimpleSENCE ships an update every 3 weeks, Moen Flo fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 10, 2026 respectively.
