ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Godox Flash holds the better App Store score, 1.8 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Godox Flash has 21 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 15% of SmallGoGo's written reviews are positive against 10% of Godox Flash's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

SmallGoGo ships an update every 3 months, Godox Flash every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 17, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
