Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Calculator at none against Calculator +'s shown. Calculator also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.4). Calculator +'s advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months) and review sentiment (85% vs 71%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support 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
Both are free to download. Calculator + sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Calculator sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Calculator holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Calculator + has 10K ratings behind it against 1.9K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 85% of Calculator +'s written reviews are positive against 71% of Calculator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Calculator + ships an update every 4 days, Calculator every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
