# Forms vs forms.app

The clearest difference is rating: forms.app at 4.0 against Forms's 3.5. forms.app also leads on ratings volume (47 vs 4). Forms's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 68%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Forms sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $5.49 per month and forms.app sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

forms.app holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: forms.app has 47 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Forms's written reviews are positive against 68% of forms.app's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Forms ships an update fortnightly, forms.app every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
