Both are free to download. Gradepen sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. RADE asks for nothing beyond the download.
Gradepen holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2 and 2 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of Gradepen's written reviews are positive against 87% of RADE's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Gradepen ships an update every 6 weeks, RADE every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 10, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
