Subnetwork is a full-feature IPv4 subnet calculator that allows you to effortlessly calculate single subnets, Fixed Length Subnet Masks (FLSM) and Variable Length Subnet Masks (VLSM) using whatever IPv4 address and Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) notation you choose. Subnetting may be complicated and tedious, but that doesn't mean your user experience needs to be. Designed exclusively for iOS, Subnetwork is a native and intuitive networking tool for students and IT professionals alike. Subnet Calculator - Calculate the subnet mask, wildcard, network ID, host range, broadcast addresses and more with an IPv4 address and dynamically adjustable CIDR prefix. Fixed Length Subnet Mask (FLSM) Calculator - Instantly generate between 2 and 1028 FLSM subnets to meet your network and host requirements. Variable Length Subnet Mask (VLSM) Calculator - Instantly generate VLSM subnets to meet your custom host requirements and maximize your available address space. Simple and Powerful - View minimal subnet details in decimal notation, or rotate your device for full binary calculations across all modes. View basic information at a glance in FLSM or VLSM, or dive into the details with just one touch. The choice is yours. Save Support - Name, store, and retrieve your subnets for later use across all three calculator modes.
CIDR Calc
Calculate subnet details, including IP addresses, masks, and reverse masks, using CIDR notation. Generate and share lists of subnets and hosts within the next higher octet. This tool simplifies network calculations for IT professionals and students.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: CIDR Calc at 5.0 against Subnetwork's 4.4. Subnetwork's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 19 months) and ratings volume (7 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
CIDR Calc holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Subnetwork has 7 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Subnetwork ships an update every 3 months, CIDR Calc every 19 months. The most recent releases landed on September 4, 2026 and September 8, 2026 respectively.
