Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Sms Planner E at 4.9 against Scheduled's 2.8. Sms Planner E also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and device support (3 vs 1). Scheduled's advantage is ratings volume (1.3K vs 8). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Scheduled sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Sms Planner E sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Sms Planner E holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Scheduled has 1.3K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
