Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Flowchart Designer 5 at none against Mockup's shown. Mockup's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 3.9) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model 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. Mockup sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days and Flowchart Designer 5 sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Mockup holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mockup has 575 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 44% of Mockup's written reviews are positive against 23% of Flowchart Designer 5's.
Mockup ships an update fortnightly, Flowchart Designer 5 every 2 months. Both last shipped on October 30, 2026.
