Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Hallmark Cards Now at 4.9 against FlexBeam's 1.0. Hallmark Cards Now also leads on ratings volume (10K vs 1). FlexBeam's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 65%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Hallmark Cards Now holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hallmark Cards Now has 10K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 65% of Hallmark Cards Now's written reviews are positive against 100% of FlexBeam's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Hallmark Cards Now ships an update fortnightly, FlexBeam every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
