Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: MaintenancePlanner at 4.2 against Stem PowerTrack's 3.0. MaintenancePlanner also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months). Stem PowerTrack's advantage is review sentiment (20% vs 0%) and ratings volume (40 vs 5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

MaintenancePlanner holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Stem PowerTrack has 40 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of MaintenancePlanner's written reviews are positive against 20% of Stem PowerTrack's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

MaintenancePlanner ships an update every 2 weeks, Stem PowerTrack every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
