# Flex vs Alive Cycle

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Alive Cycle at 100% against Flex's 50%. Alive Cycle also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.0) and ratings volume (30 vs 2). Flex's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Alive Cycle holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Alive Cycle has 30 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 50% of Flex's written reviews are positive against 100% of Alive Cycle's.
