# Strflow vs Hey Me

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Strflow at 50 against Hey Me's 1. Strflow also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Strflow sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per month and Hey Me sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Strflow against 5.0 for Hey Me. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Strflow has 50 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Strflow ships an update fortnightly, Hey Me every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
