# Sofly vs Flyover Alerts

The clearest difference is rating: Flyover Alerts at 5.0 against Sofly's 4.3. Flyover Alerts also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 26.0). Sofly's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ratings volume (14 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sofly sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days and Flyover Alerts sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Flyover Alerts holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sofly has 14 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
