# DrinkControl vs Flex Foundry

The clearest difference is ratings volume: DrinkControl at 4.3K against Flex Foundry's 2. DrinkControl also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid). Flex Foundry's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DrinkControl sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Flex Foundry sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $200.00 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Flex Foundry holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DrinkControl has 4.3K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

DrinkControl ships an update every 3 weeks, Flex Foundry every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
