ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Pipe Trades Pro Calc holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pipe Trades Pro Calc has 4.4K ratings behind it against 436, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 43% of Pipe Trades Pro Calc's written reviews are positive against 70% of Construction Calculator Master's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Pipe Trades Pro Calc ships an update every 7 months, Construction Calculator Master fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
