# BluMatrix vs Estimate Maker

The clearest difference is monetization model: BluMatrix at free with in-app purchases against Estimate Maker's subscription. BluMatrix also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and chart position (#198 vs unranked). Estimate Maker's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 8 days). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BluMatrix sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $49.99 per month and Estimate Maker sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $99.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

BluMatrix holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 8 and 8 respectively.

BluMatrix ships an update every 8 days, Estimate Maker every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and October 5, 2026 respectively.
