Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Spreadsheet at none against Microsoft Copilot's shown. Spreadsheet also leads on review sentiment (61% vs 29%). Microsoft Copilot's advantage is ratings volume (1.3M vs 165) and rating (4.7 vs 4.4). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Microsoft Copilot sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Spreadsheet sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Microsoft Copilot holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Microsoft Copilot has 1.3M ratings behind it against 165, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 29% of Microsoft Copilot's written reviews are positive against 61% of Spreadsheet's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Microsoft Copilot ships an update every 4 days, Spreadsheet every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and July 21, 2026 respectively.
