# PrivacyShield vs Partial Calendar

The clearest difference is rating: Partial Calendar at 5.0 against PrivacyShield's 4.1. Partial Calendar also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 73%) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). PrivacyShield's advantage is ratings volume (117 vs 4). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PrivacyShield sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days and Partial Calendar sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Partial Calendar holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PrivacyShield has 117 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.
