# Calendar vs Postalist

The clearest difference is rating: Postalist at 5.0 against Calendar's 4.5. Postalist also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 75%) and update cadence (weekly vs every 5 weeks). Calendar's advantage is ratings volume (35 vs 3) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Calendar sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Postalist sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Postalist holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Calendar has 35 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 75% of Calendar's written reviews are positive against 100% of Postalist's.

Calendar ships an update every 5 weeks, Postalist weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 8, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
