ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Moen Flo holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Moen Flo has 22K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of eKeypad Alarm's written reviews are positive against 15% of Moen Flo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

eKeypad Alarm ships an update every 3 weeks, Moen Flo fortnightly. Both last shipped on September 26, 2026.
