# Calendar vs Cloud Calendars

The clearest difference is rating: Cloud Calendars at 4.5 against Calendar's 3.3. Cloud Calendars also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Calendar sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and Cloud Calendars sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Calendar ships an update every 2 months, Cloud Calendars every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
