# Calendar vs Structured

Calendar and Structured both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 78% of Structured's written reviews are positive against 36% of Calendar's. Structured also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 4 months) and chart position (#98 vs unranked). Calendar's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ratings volume (1.5M vs 169K). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Structured sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Calendar asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Calendar against 4.8 for Structured. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Calendar has 1.5M ratings behind it against 169K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 36% of Calendar's written reviews are positive against 78% of Structured's.

Calendar ships an update every 4 months, Structured every 9 days. Both last shipped on November 13, 2026.
