# Grade Aid vs Grade Grid

The clearest difference is rating: Grade Aid at 5.0 against Grade Grid's 4.4. Grade Aid also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Grade Grid's advantage is ratings volume (22 vs 3) and iOS requirement (13.6 vs 26.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

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

Grade Aid holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Grade Grid has 22 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Grade Aid ships an update every 12 months, Grade Grid every 13 months. The most recent releases landed on July 8, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
