Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Flightpoints at 5.0 against AwardTool's 2.6. Flightpoints also leads on review sentiment (67% vs 40%).

Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. AwardTool sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $12.99 per month and Flightpoints sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Flightpoints holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: AwardTool has 8 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 40% of AwardTool's written reviews are positive against 67% of Flightpoints's.
AwardTool ships an update every 4 weeks, Flightpoints every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 30, 2026.
