# Calc Cloud vs Calculator+VAT

The clearest difference is rating: Calculator+VAT at 5.0 against Calc Cloud's 4.2. Calc Cloud's advantage is ratings volume (17 vs 1) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Calc Cloud sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Calculator+VAT sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Calculator+VAT holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Calc Cloud has 17 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Calc Cloud ships an update every 3 weeks, Calculator+VAT every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
