# Grid vs Tall Grid Maker

The clearest difference is ads: Grid at none against Tall Grid Maker's shown. Grid also leads on ratings volume (798 vs 8). Tall Grid Maker's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Grid sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Tall Grid Maker sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.39 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Tall Grid Maker holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Grid has 798 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 88% of Grid's written reviews are positive against 80% of Tall Grid Maker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Grid ships an update every 3 weeks, Tall Grid Maker every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
