# CloudPlus vs Grower Diary

Both are free to download. CloudPlus sells 32 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Grower Diary sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

CloudPlus ships an update every 2 months, Grower Diary every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
