# When vs Daily Planner

The clearest difference is ads: Daily Planner at none against When's shown. Daily Planner also leads on ratings volume (119 vs 9). When's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and review sentiment (83% vs 73%). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. When sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Daily Planner sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $7.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

When holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Daily Planner has 119 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 83% of When's written reviews are positive against 73% of Daily Planner's.

When ships an update fortnightly, Daily Planner every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
