Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Spreadsheets at 4.5 against Zoom Rooms's 3.4. Spreadsheets also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks) and ratings volume (1.1K vs 239). Zoom Rooms's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 7). On price, review sentiment, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Spreadsheets holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 239 and 1.1K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 22% of Zoom Rooms's written reviews are positive against 15% of Spreadsheets's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Zoom Rooms ships an update every 5 weeks, Spreadsheets fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
