Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Party_Planner at none against Birthday Planner Pro's shown. Party_Planner also leads on update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 11 months) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Birthday Planner Pro's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (55 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Birthday Planner Pro holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Birthday Planner Pro has 55 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 93% of Birthday Planner Pro's written reviews are positive against 100% of Party_Planner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Birthday Planner Pro ships an update every 11 months, Party_Planner every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
