Verdict
The clearest difference is price: MAX CU at Free against BA Financial Calculator Pro's $5.99. MAX CU also leads on rating (4.7 vs 3.0) and ratings volume (8.9K vs 191). BA Financial Calculator Pro's advantage is chart position (#100 vs unranked) and review sentiment (37% vs 28%). On update cadence, ads and in-app purchases 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
MAX CU is free to download; BA Financial Calculator Pro costs $5.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
MAX CU holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MAX CU has 8.9K ratings behind it against 191, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 37% of BA Financial Calculator Pro's written reviews are positive against 28% of MAX CU's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
BA Financial Calculator Pro ships an update every 5 weeks, MAX CU every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
