Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Merchant Assistant at Free against ICS2Calendar's $0.99. Merchant Assistant also leads on review sentiment (84% vs 50%). ICS2Calendar's advantage is rating (3.0 vs 1.0) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 2 months). On ratings volume, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Merchant Assistant is free to download; ICS2Calendar costs $0.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
ICS2Calendar holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 1.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2 and 1 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of Merchant Assistant's written reviews are positive against 50% of ICS2Calendar's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Merchant Assistant ships an update every 2 months, ICS2Calendar every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
