# Evolution vs Star Trek Fleet Command

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Evolution at 67% against Star Trek Fleet Command's 28%. Evolution also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.3). Star Trek Fleet Command's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 4 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Evolution sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Star Trek Fleet Command sells 12 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Evolution holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Star Trek Fleet Command has 68K ratings behind it against 321, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 67% of Evolution's written reviews are positive against 28% of Star Trek Fleet Command's.

Evolution ships an update every 4 months, Star Trek Fleet Command every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on September 7, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
