# Layout for Creators vs Grid++

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Grid++ at 75% against Layout for Creators's 6%. Grid++ also leads on ratings volume (161 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26). Layout for Creators's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 19 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Layout for Creators sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Grid++ sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Layout for Creators holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Grid++ has 161 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 6% of Layout for Creators's written reviews are positive against 75% of Grid++'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Layout for Creators ships an update every 9 days, Grid++ every 19 months. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
