Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: qube at 100% against Civil Engineering Pack's 0%. qube also leads on price (Free vs $19.99) and rating (5.0 vs 4.3). Civil Engineering Pack's advantage is chart position (#186 vs unranked) and ratings volume (21 vs 3). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
qube is free to download; Civil Engineering Pack costs $19.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
qube holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Civil Engineering Pack has 21 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 0% of Civil Engineering Pack's written reviews are positive against 100% of qube's.
Civil Engineering Pack ships an update every 8 months, qube fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 6, 2026 and July 1, 2026 respectively.
