# TapCal vs Gravity

The clearest difference is price: TapCal at Free against Gravity's $9.99. TapCal also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 92%). Gravity's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 6) and ads (none vs shown). On ratings volume, update cadence, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

TapCal is free to download; Gravity costs $9.99 up front. TapCal sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Gravity asks for nothing beyond the download.

Gravity holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 10 and 9 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of TapCal's written reviews are positive against 92% of Gravity's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

TapCal ships an update every 10 days, Gravity fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and October 2, 2026 respectively.
