Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Madelocal at none against Flytrex's shown. Madelocal also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 71%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Flytrex's advantage is ratings volume (2.3K vs 11) and rating (4.9 vs 4.6). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support 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.
Flytrex holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flytrex has 2.3K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Flytrex's written reviews are positive against 100% of Madelocal's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Flytrex ships an update every 6 weeks, Madelocal every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and October 23, 2026 respectively.
