Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: VisualEyes at 4.8 against Flowstate's 2.7. VisualEyes also leads on ratings volume (407 vs 3). Flowstate's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (83% vs 73%). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. VisualEyes sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Flowstate sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

VisualEyes holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: VisualEyes has 407 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of VisualEyes's written reviews are positive against 83% of Flowstate's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

VisualEyes ships an update every 2 weeks, Flowstate fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
