# Airmate vs FLYLOG.io

The clearest difference is update cadence: FLYLOG.io at every 3 days against Airmate's every 6 weeks. Airmate's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 64%) and ratings volume (549 vs 108). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Airmate sells 21 in-app purchases, starting at $24.99 per year and FLYLOG.io sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

FLYLOG.io holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Airmate has 549 ratings behind it against 108, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Airmate's written reviews are positive against 64% of FLYLOG.io's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Airmate ships an update every 6 weeks, FLYLOG.io every 3 days. Both last shipped on November 1, 2026.
