# Flash Maker vs HM FPV

The clearest difference is rating: Flash Maker at 1.9 against HM FPV's 1.0. Flash Maker also leads on ratings volume (453 vs 1). HM FPV's advantage is review sentiment (25% vs 17%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Flash Maker holds the better App Store score, 1.9 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flash Maker has 453 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 17% of Flash Maker's written reviews are positive against 25% of HM FPV's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
