# Clinked vs Forms for Google Docs

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Clinked at none against Forms for Google Docs's 20. Clinked also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (84% vs 60%). Forms for Google Docs's advantage is ratings volume (60K vs 12) and rating (4.7 vs 4.4). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Forms for Google Docs sells 16 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Clinked asks for nothing beyond the download.

Forms for Google Docs holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Forms for Google Docs has 60K ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of Clinked's written reviews are positive against 60% of Forms for Google Docs's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
