# Microsoft Copilot vs Spreadsheet

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.

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.

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.

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.
