Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Weekly Planner at 15K against myShiftWork's 139. Weekly Planner also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). myShiftWork's advantage is iOS requirement (11.0 vs 18.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads 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. myShiftWork sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Weekly Planner sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Weekly Planner holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Weekly Planner has 15K ratings behind it against 139, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of myShiftWork's written reviews are positive against 70% of Weekly Planner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
myShiftWork ships an update every 2 months, Weekly Planner every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 18, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
