SmartCut (Cutlist Optimizer V2) is an iPhone and iPad app for sheet and linear cut layouts, free to download with an optional Premium in-app purchase (listed at $1.99 on the US App Store).
SmartCut is a native iPhone and iPad app (iOS or iPadOS 16 or later) with grain direction, blade width, edge banding, stock trim, offcut reuse and PDF export, and it is available in 30 languages, more than CutPlan's 21. Its App Store listing covers Apple devices only. CutPlan runs in the browser on any phone, tablet or computer, with a free plan of 30 calculations a month. If you only work on an iPhone or iPad and want the lowest price, SmartCut is a reasonable fit.
SmartCut suits anyone who works only on an iPhone or iPad. CutPlan suits anyone who also wants a browser tool that works on any device, free for 30 calculations a month.
