Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Firefly Airlines holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 1.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Firefly Airlines has 114 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of Firefly Airlines's written reviews are positive against 50% of MyRapid PULSE's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Firefly Airlines ships an update every 2 weeks, MyRapid PULSE fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
