Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Calendars at weekly against Calendar's every 5 weeks. Calendars also leads on ratings volume (123K vs 35) and chart position (#109 vs unranked). Calendar's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 56%) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.2). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Calendars sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and Calendar sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Calendars holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Calendars has 123K ratings behind it against 35, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of Calendars's written reviews are positive against 75% of Calendar's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Calendars ships an update weekly, Calendar every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 9, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
