Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Upcoming at Free against Tasklo's $2.99. Upcoming also leads on iOS requirement (18.0 vs 26.0). Tasklo's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 67%) and update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
