Both are free to download. Beesbusy sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Smart Tasks sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Smart Tasks holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Smart Tasks has 4.5K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of Beesbusy's written reviews are positive against 79% of Smart Tasks's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
