# Grade Aid vs Easy Grade

The clearest difference is monetization model: Grade Aid at free against Easy Grade's free with in-app purchases. Easy Grade's advantage is ratings volume (960 vs 3) and update cadence (every 4 months vs every 12 months). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Grade Aid sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Easy Grade sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Grade Aid against 4.9 for Easy Grade. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Easy Grade has 960 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Grade Aid ships an update every 12 months, Easy Grade every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on July 8, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
