Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Flash Cards + at none against Reminder Notifications's 5. Flash Cards + also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 6 weeks). Reminder Notifications's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (1.4K vs 87). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Reminder Notifications holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Reminder Notifications has 1.4K ratings behind it against 87, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of Flash Cards +'s written reviews are positive against 61% of Reminder Notifications's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Flash Cards + ships an update every 5 days, Reminder Notifications every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on August 3, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
