# Discovery vs Reflex Active Red

The clearest difference is rating: Discovery at 4.5 against Reflex Active Red's 3.6. Discovery also leads on ratings volume (3.6K vs 10) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). Reflex Active Red's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and review sentiment (37% vs 22%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Discovery holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Discovery has 3.6K ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 22% of Discovery's written reviews are positive against 37% of Reflex Active Red's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Discovery ships an update fortnightly, Reflex Active Red every 3 months. Both last shipped on September 23, 2026.
