Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: GCiTrader at none against Pip Calculator's 1. GCiTrader also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Pip Calculator's advantage is review sentiment (72% vs 41%) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 months). On price 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. Pip Calculator sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. GCiTrader asks for nothing beyond the download.
GCiTrader holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pip Calculator has 406 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 41% of GCiTrader's written reviews are positive against 72% of Pip Calculator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
GCiTrader ships an update every 3 months, Pip Calculator every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
