Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Solid Calendar at 4.9 against Airlist's 4.7. Solid Calendar also leads on ratings volume (119 vs 15) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.0). Airlist's advantage is monetization model (freemium vs paid). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Airlist sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Solid Calendar sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Solid Calendar holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Solid Calendar has 119 ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 85% of Airlist's written reviews are positive against 79% of Solid Calendar's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Airlist ships an update monthly, Solid Calendar fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 3, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
