ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Simple Subnet Calc holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Subnet Plus has 54 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of Simple Subnet Calc's written reviews are positive against 89% of Subnet Plus's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Simple Subnet Calc ships an update every 6 months, Subnet Plus every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on June 1, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
