# Jumbo Jet Flight Simulator vs IF Remote

The clearest difference is rating: Jumbo Jet Flight Simulator at 4.7 against IF Remote's 3.5. Jumbo Jet Flight Simulator also leads on ratings volume (4.4K vs 8) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). IF Remote's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Jumbo Jet Flight Simulator sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and IF Remote sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Jumbo Jet Flight Simulator holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Jumbo Jet Flight Simulator has 4.4K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of Jumbo Jet Flight Simulator's written reviews are positive against 75% of IF Remote's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Jumbo Jet Flight Simulator ships an update fortnightly, IF Remote every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
