Users can explore digital flyers from restaurants, stores, salons, gyms, entertainment venues, service providers, and other businesses.

Discover discounts, special events, announcements, new products, and limited-time offers. Follow businesses and receive notifications when they publish something new. Browse by category or use search to find businesses and promotions that interest you. Some flyers may include external links to websites, booking pages, delivery services, online stores, or social media profiles. These links open outside FlyerView in your browser. FlyerView may perform automated technical checks to help identify potentially unsafe URLs, but each business remains responsible for the content and destination of its external links. Businesses can create a public profile, add profile and cover images, provide contact and business information, and build a presence within FlyerView. Eligible Business Pro accounts can publish promotional flyers and use additional promotional features. Flyers normally remain in the main feed for approximately 24 hours. Businesses may also pin eligible flyers to their profiles for 3, 7, or 30 days. A pinned flyer remains visible only when someone visits the business profile and does not remain in the general feed beyond its normal availability period.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: FlyerView at 100% against Xfinity Home's 29%. FlyerView also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.3) and ads (none vs shown). Xfinity Home's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (12K vs 7). On price, monetization model and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
