Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: MapChart App at free with in-app purchases against FluxDraw's subscription. MapChart App also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (4.8K vs 1). FluxDraw's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MapChart App sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and FluxDraw sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
FluxDraw holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MapChart App has 4.8K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
MapChart App ships an update weekly, FluxDraw every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
