# Radiate vs Flistr

The clearest difference is rating: Radiate at 4.9 against Flistr's 3.0. Radiate also leads on ratings volume (32K vs 2) and chart position (#108 vs unranked). Flistr's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 10 days). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Radiate sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Flistr sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Radiate holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Radiate has 32K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Radiate ships an update every 10 days, Flistr every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
