# Calendars vs Tjime

The clearest difference is ads: Calendars at none against Tjime's shown. Calendars also leads on ratings volume (122K vs 52) and chart position (#107 vs unranked). Tjime's advantage is review sentiment (85% vs 55%) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 18.2). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Calendars sells 18 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and Tjime sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Calendars against 4.7 for Tjime. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Calendars has 122K ratings behind it against 52, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 55% of Calendars's written reviews are positive against 85% of Tjime's.
