# Simple Spreadsheet vs Spreadsheet data entry

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Spreadsheet data entry at 100% against Simple Spreadsheet's 44%. Spreadsheet data entry also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Simple Spreadsheet's advantage is ratings volume (6.9K vs 5). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Simple Spreadsheet sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per year and Spreadsheet data entry sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Spreadsheet data entry holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Simple Spreadsheet has 6.9K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 44% of Simple Spreadsheet's written reviews are positive against 100% of Spreadsheet data entry's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 12, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
