Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Viking Line at 1.9 against Föli's 1.0. Viking Line also leads on ratings volume (9 vs 2). Föli's advantage is monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Viking Line holds the better App Store score, 1.9 against 1.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2 and 9 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of Föli's written reviews are positive against 13% of Viking Line's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Föli ships an update every 3 months, Viking Line every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
