# Strflow vs Reverie

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Strflow at 52 against Reverie's 1. Strflow also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (18.0 vs 26.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Strflow sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per month and Reverie sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Strflow against 5.0 for Reverie. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Strflow has 52 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 97% of Strflow's written reviews are positive against 100% of Reverie's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
