Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
CNC Setup Sheet

The setup sheet, done in 30 seconds. Enter your material and tools — CNC Setup Sheet computes spindle speed, feed rate, surface speed and chip load, then lays everything out as a clean, printable shop-floor setup sheet you can hand to the machine. BUY ONCE. NO SUBSCRIPTION. The Pro upgrade is a single one-time purchase. No monthly fees, no account, no cloud. The app works fully offline — on the shop floor, in the garage, anywhere. YOU OWN THE NUMBERS. Every computed value is a starting point, not a verdict. Override RPM, feed, SFM or chip load before you export — the sheet prints what you decide. WHAT'S INSIDE • Feeds & Speeds — RPM, feed rate, SFM and chip load for milling, from material + cutter + flutes. Spindle-limit aware. • Drilling — speeds and feeds for twist drills, with peck guidance. • Tapping — tap drill sizes (UNC/UNF and metric) and rigid-tapping feed synced to thread lead. • Converter — SFM ↔ m/min, inch ↔ mm, feed units. • Setup Sheet — job header (part, machine, workholding, WCS, coolant), tooling & cut data table, operation sequence and setup notes, exported as a US-Letter PDF you can print, share or email. BUILT FOR CNC machinists, job-shop programmers, home-shop and garage machinists, makers running desktop mills. MATERIALS Aluminum, brass, bronze, copper, mild steel, alloy steel, tool steel, stainless, cast iron, titanium, plastics — with conservative starting SFM and chip-load values compiled from common shop references. FREE VS PRO Free: every calculator and the full setup-sheet editor. Exported PDFs carry a SAMPLE watermark. Pro (one-time purchase): removes the watermark — clean, print-ready setup sheets. Cut data are reference starting values. Always verify against your tooling manufacturer's data and machine limits before cutting.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Kalkulator CNC at none against CNC Setup Sheet's 1. CNC Setup Sheet's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.2). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
