Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Clinometer+ at Free against TiltMeter's $1.99. Clinometer+ also leads on rating (4.5 vs 3.6) and ratings volume (1K vs 163). TiltMeter's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Clinometer+ holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Clinometer+ has 1K ratings behind it against 163, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of TiltMeter's written reviews are positive against 48% of Clinometer+'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

TiltMeter ships an update every 2 weeks, Clinometer+ every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
