# Calendar+ vs Tiny Calendar

The clearest difference is rating: Tiny Calendar at 4.6 against Calendar+'s 4.0. Tiny Calendar also leads on review sentiment (77% vs 48%) and ratings volume (21K vs 61). Calendar+'s advantage is monetization model (freemium vs subscription) and ads (none vs shown). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Calendar+ sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and Tiny Calendar sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Tiny Calendar holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tiny Calendar has 21K ratings behind it against 61, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 48% of Calendar+'s written reviews are positive against 77% of Tiny Calendar's.

Calendar+ ships an update every 5 days, Tiny Calendar every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 18, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
