Verdict

Both are free to download. vCalc sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and eLifeVault sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.00 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
eLifeVault holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: vCalc has 55 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 29% of vCalc's written reviews are positive against 100% of eLifeVault's.
vCalc ships an update every 5 days, eLifeVault every 6 days. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
