# Grade Control vs Planit

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Planit at 100% against Grade Control's 30%. Planit also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.2) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 17.0). Grade Control's advantage is ratings volume (495 vs 58). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Grade Control sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per year and Planit sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.49 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Planit holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Grade Control has 495 ratings behind it against 58, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 30% of Grade Control's written reviews are positive against 100% of Planit's.
