# SOOP vs FLEXTV

The clearest difference is ads: FLEXTV at none against SOOP's shown. SOOP's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (748 vs 3). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SOOP sells 22 in-app purchases, starting at $5.49 per month and FLEXTV sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

SOOP holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SOOP has 748 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 36% of SOOP's written reviews are positive against 22% of FLEXTV's.

SOOP ships an update every 3 days, FLEXTV every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 17, 2026 respectively.
