Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: iAquaLink at 4.7 against Flo by Moen™'s 4.0. iAquaLink also leads on ratings volume (101K vs 1.9K) and iOS requirement (13.2 vs 15.0). Flo by Moen™'s advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

iAquaLink holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iAquaLink has 101K ratings behind it against 1.9K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 28% of iAquaLink's written reviews are positive against 35% of Flo by Moen™'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
