# Infinite Flight Simulator vs Flight Simulator

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Infinite Flight Simulator at 72% against Flight Simulator's 17%. Infinite Flight Simulator also leads on rating (4.3 vs 4.1) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid). Flight Simulator's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Infinite Flight Simulator sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Flight Simulator sells 12 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Infinite Flight Simulator holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Infinite Flight Simulator has 28K ratings behind it against 4.6K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 72% of Infinite Flight Simulator's written reviews are positive against 17% of Flight Simulator's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. Both last shipped on September 25, 2026.
