Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: TinyMath Finance Calculator at 100% against Calculator Max's 55%. TinyMath Finance Calculator also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). Calculator Max's advantage is ratings volume (1.8K vs 11) and rating (4.3 vs 4.1). On price, 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
Both are free to download. Calculator Max sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per year and TinyMath Finance Calculator sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Calculator Max holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Calculator Max has 1.8K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of Calculator Max's written reviews are positive against 100% of TinyMath Finance Calculator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Calculator Max ships an update every 2 months, TinyMath Finance Calculator every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
