# PlanFocus vs TreasuryViewer

The clearest difference is rating: TreasuryViewer at 4.8 against PlanFocus's 3.6. TreasuryViewer also leads on ratings volume (1.3K vs 8) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). PlanFocus's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 6). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. TreasuryViewer sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.95 per month. PlanFocus asks for nothing beyond the download.

TreasuryViewer holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TreasuryViewer has 1.3K ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of PlanFocus's written reviews are positive against 64% of TreasuryViewer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

PlanFocus ships an update every 2 months, TreasuryViewer every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on June 3, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
