# Flight Tracker Expert vs World Flights

The clearest difference is rating: World Flights at 4.9 against Flight Tracker Expert's 4.3. World Flights also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1). Flight Tracker Expert's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (79% vs 47%). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Flight Tracker Expert sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. World Flights asks for nothing beyond the download.

World Flights holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flight Tracker Expert has 2.6K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 79% of Flight Tracker Expert's written reviews are positive against 47% of World Flights's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Flight Tracker Expert ships an update every 4 weeks, World Flights every 9 months. Both last shipped on October 23, 2026.
