# FlockHopper vs Blindspot

The clearest difference is update cadence: Blindspot at every 6 days against FlockHopper's every 2 months. Blindspot also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). FlockHopper's advantage is ratings volume (309 vs 1) and chart position (#86 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. FlockHopper sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Blindspot sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Blindspot holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FlockHopper has 309 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

FlockHopper ships an update every 2 months, Blindspot every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
