# TimeGuessr vs Flagle

The clearest difference is rating: TimeGuessr at 4.9 against Flagle's 1.0. TimeGuessr also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs paid) and ratings volume (2.5K vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. TimeGuessr sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and Flagle sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

TimeGuessr holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TimeGuessr has 2.5K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 80% of TimeGuessr's written reviews are positive against 60% of Flagle's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 16, 2026 respectively.
