n•week is a simple, visual way to organize your tasks, your habits and your fixed expenses, one week at a time. Plan from Sunday to Saturday and add reminders straight into the day they belong to. Drag them to reorder, swipe to move them to another week and pick the day, and if something is left unfinished when the week rolls over, n•week returns it to No Date so it doesn't slip away. Whatever repeats has its place. In Daily you pick the exact days each habit comes back on — Monday, Wednesday and Friday only, if that's what you need — and give it a time if you want a notification. Monthly holds what returns every month, with its payment date. Note the amount of each fixed expense and n•week adds up what the month costs, counting it down as you pay. Anything still owed past its date is marked in red. And what has no date doesn't get lost either: keep it in Someday, in groups you name and can collapse all at once when the list grows. Main features: • Weekly view from Sunday to Saturday, with next week one tap away. • Unfinished reminders carried over when the week changes. • Habits with specific repeat days and notifications. • Fixed expenses with payment dates, monthly totals and a red warning when overdue. • Custom groups for projects and future plans. • Swipe horizontally to move between sections. • Links highlighted and ready to open. • Drag and drop to reorder and move between days. • Reminder search. • Completed and Trash, to bring back what you deleted. • iCloud sync across your devices. • A guided tour on screen, available whenever you need it. • Automatic dark mode and a compact interface in yellow, grey and black. Subscription: n•week runs on a subscription that renews every 6 months, with a free trial to start. The price for your region is shown in the app before you confirm. The subscription renews automatically until you cancel, and you can manage or cancel it at any time in your App Store account settings. Organize what you have to do this week, and keep everything you want to do later in one place. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Verdict
The clearest difference is chart position: TP at #113 against n's unranked. TP also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). 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. TP sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and n sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $0.99 per 6 months. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
