# 24 vs Payroll Calendar

The clearest difference is rating: Payroll Calendar at 5.0 against 24's 4.4. Payroll Calendar also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 8 months). 24's advantage is monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases) and ratings volume (64 vs 8). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 24 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Payroll Calendar sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Payroll Calendar holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 24 has 64 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two.

24 ships an update every 8 months, Payroll Calendar weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
