# SmartSolve vs Statistics Solver

The clearest difference is ads: Statistics Solver at none against SmartSolve's shown. SmartSolve's advantage is ratings volume (3.6K vs 407). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SmartSolve sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days and Statistics Solver sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 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 — 4.6 for SmartSolve against 4.6 for Statistics Solver. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SmartSolve has 3.6K ratings behind it against 407, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 66% and 67% positive.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 2, 2026 respectively.
