Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: iSpreadsheet™ at none against Small Business Accounting's 2. iSpreadsheet™ also leads on review sentiment (80% vs 58%) and ratings volume (10K vs 550). Small Business Accounting's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, rating, update cadence and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Small Business Accounting sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. iSpreadsheet™ asks for nothing beyond the download.
Small Business Accounting holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iSpreadsheet™ has 10K ratings behind it against 550, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of iSpreadsheet™'s written reviews are positive against 58% of Small Business Accounting's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
iSpreadsheet™ ships an update every 2 months, Small Business Accounting every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
