Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
DataAnalysis
This iPad app allows users to plot and fit various types of data using curve fitting, value prediction, and kinetic analysis. Data can be imported or entered manually, with options for preprocessing before plotting and customization of graphs. It supports multiple fitting methods and can generate standard curves for unknowns.
- Plotting and fitting of x,y data
- Data import (txt, csv, clipboard)
- Data preprocessing (average, normalize)
- Customizable graph generation

DataAnalysis is a general purpose iPad App for the plotting and fitting of all types of data that can be formulated as x, y pairs. The program can be easily used by both students and professionals. It is particularly useful for quick analyses of various types of data by curve fitting, value prediction via a standard curve, and analysis of kinetic data including enzyme kinetics. Data can be entered directly via the keyboard or imported from a text file (.txt), or a comma separated value file (.csv). In addition, data can be pasted from the clipboard. After data entry the user has the option to average, baseline correct, and/or normalize the data before plotting and fitting. Plotting of the data is as simple as pressing the Plot button. The axes are autoscaled and the graph is immediately ready to add to a document or presentation. The user has a variety of options to customize the graph by altering the axes, axes labels, graph title, and changing the symbol, its size and color. Using touch and drag the user can create a selection box allowing the creation of a data subset. Once the data subset has been selected the user has two options: (1) To zoom in on the selected data. Any fitting done in this mode is global (e.g. uses all the data). (2) To zoom and perform a fitting only on the selected subset of the data. The data can be fit to a variety of mathematical equations by non-linear regression including simple functions such as linear, 2nd and 3th order polynomials, power, exponential, and log functions. Data can also be fit to more complex equations for such processes as radioactive decay, enzyme kinetics, 1st and 2nd order chemical reactions, as well as gaussian, logistics and surge functions. The fit can be overlaid on the data with different line widths, types and thicknesses. Lowess Regression (LOcal Weighted regrESSion) can also be used to fit data without the need to specify a mathematical function. Not only does Lowess Regression not require a mathematical function, but also does not require parameters (non-parametric). This fitting method is used extensively to fit everything from election polling to astrophysics data, where the data have a large degree of scatter. For many analytical situations, the data fit can be used as a standard curve to determine the value of unknowns. This analytical procedure is completely automated within DataAnalysis. The program output, graphics and text, can be copied, emailed, or uploaded to cloud storage such as iCloud, Dropbox, Box and OneDrive in a variety of formats including PDF, PNG, CSV and TXT. The graphics in PDF format can be edited with programs like Adobe Illustrator™ and AutoDesk Graphic™ as objects. DataAnalysis also supports multitasking and printing of input data as well as all forms of output. DataAnalysis has built in tool tips, a comprehensive web based User Guide and videos tutorials all available via the Help Menu.

Number Analytics is a statistical software for advanced statistical tests, regression analysis, text analysis, and survival analysis. It supports multiple data formats like SPSS, Minitab, Excel, CSV, STATA and SAS. The software provides powerful graphs and tables for mean difference tests (T-test, ANOVA), linear regression, logistic regression, K-means clustering, and survival analysis (Kaplan-meier plot). Text cloud visualization enables you to analyze unstructured customer feedback text data in seconds. Easily analyze your data anytime, anywhere with smartphones and tablets. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Statistical analysis is critical to improving business, society, and how we live. Market research for new product development, social science research at universities, and medical research at hospitals are all looking for statistically significant data patterns based on actual, experimental, or survey data. Number Analytics is designed for users who are not good at coding and statistics, but need to easily analyze various types of data for their research on their mobile devices. In the past, analyzing data meant spending hours preparing data, summarizing summary statistics, performing numerous statistical analyses based on hypotheses, and finding statistically significant relationships between variables. Especially for beginners, selecting the right statistical models and interpreting the results are the pain points and require considerable time and effort. Now it can be done with clicks and automation that can speed up the process at least 10 times. With Number Analyzer, the computer will automatically apply these statistical models and explain the statistical results in plain English. Because the computer knows which statistical models to use, you can run more than 100 statistical analyses at once. The statistical results, such as linear regression and ANOVA, show not only statistical test results, but also graphs with confidence intervals and marginal effects, and tables coded with statistical differences between subgroups. To upload your own data, first download or move your data to iCloud storage. Then click the Upload button in the Data section. You can easily upload and use the data. Various data formats are supported including labelled survey data (SPSS). Supported data file formats - SPSS, Excel, CSV, Minitab, STATA, SAS Currently the upload file size is limited to 2Mb.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Number Analytics at 5.0 against DataAnalysis's 4.1. Number Analytics also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 64%) and device support (3 vs 1). DataAnalysis's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and ads (none vs shown). On price and iOS requirement 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. Number Analytics sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. DataAnalysis asks for nothing beyond the download.
Number Analytics holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DataAnalysis has 106 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 64% of DataAnalysis's written reviews are positive against 100% of Number Analytics's.
DataAnalysis ships an update every 2 months, Number Analytics every 16 months. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
