# Utility Spreadsheet Pro vs Spreadsheets

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Utility Spreadsheet Pro at 68% against Spreadsheets's 15%. Utility Spreadsheet Pro also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 7) and chart position (#165 vs unranked). Spreadsheets's advantage is price (Free vs $2.99) and rating (4.5 vs 4.1). On update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Spreadsheets is free to download; Utility Spreadsheet Pro costs $2.99 up front. Spreadsheets sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Utility Spreadsheet Pro asks for nothing beyond the download.

Spreadsheets holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spreadsheets has 1.1K ratings behind it against 78, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of Utility Spreadsheet Pro's written reviews are positive against 15% of Spreadsheets's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Utility Spreadsheet Pro ships an update every 3 weeks, Spreadsheets fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
